Woodside railway station (site), Aberdeenshire, 2017
Opened in 1858 on the Great North of Scotland Railway's line from Aberdeen to Keith, this station closed to passengers in 1937.
View west towards Bucksburn and Keith. A year after this image was taken, the line was redoubled and nearly all trace of the old platforms seen here has now gone.
