Opened in 1854 on the Great North of Scotland Railway's line from Aberdeen to Keith, this station closed to passengers in 1964. The line was later singled. View south east towards Kinaldie and Aberdeen. A new Kintore station was eventually opened in 2020 some 400m north west of here (see Image), and the line doubled again. The original platforms shown here may no longer be visible (needs confirmation)
