Though the tank itself is long gone from the top, this granite base remains in situ at the northern end of the down platform at Ellon station. The station itself closed to passengers in 1965 as a result of the Beeching Cuts. A selection of photos of the station when it was open can be found here: http://www.railbrit.co.uk/location.php?loc=Ellon
