Broomfield Junction railway station (site), Montrose
Opened in 1865 by the Montrose & Bervie Railway, later part of the North British Railway, this diminutive halt is believed to have closed in 1877 (needs confirmation). The main reason for its existence was to avoid paying access charges to the Caledonian Railway station in Montrose (see Image).
View north towards Dubton (the course of the path) on the Caledonian's Forfar-Aberdeen line, and Bervie, curving away to the right. The single platform halt served the Bervie line only and was in the "V" of the junction, now in the trees. No trace exists.
