Opened in 1897 by the Great North of Scotland Railway on its line from Aberdeen to Keith, this station was the junction for the Moray Coast line. The station closed in 1968. The line was later singled. View north towards Grange and Keith. The island platform was in the trees in the middle distance. No trace apparently remains.
