Opened in 1849 by the Aberdeen Railway, later part of the Caledonian Railway, as the terminus of a short branch line from Dubton, this station closed to passengers in 1934 when services were transferred to the current Montrose station. View north east along the sole platform. The original canopy covered both the platform and the track, but has been replaced by something a little lighter.
