Waterloo Station closed to passengers as early as 1867 when the new (and current) Aberdeen Station opened. The branch line has recently seen a new lease of life, as the freight depot at the end of the line has been extended in conjunction with the opening of Union Square shopping centre, which was built on the site of the main goods yard. Such sites are said to be havens for wildlife but it has to coexist with the usual rotting rubbish.
