Castle Douglas St. Andrew Street railway station (site), Dumfries & Galloway
Opened in 1864 by the Kirkcudbright Railway, soon to become part of the Glasgow & South Western Railway, on the line from Castle Douglas to Kirkcudbright. This temporary station closed in 1867 when the line gained access to the main station in Castle Douglas. The delay had been caused by the need to reconstruct the junction with the "main" line which had apparently not been up to Board of Trade standards.
View south west towards Bridge of Dee and Kirkcudbright from what is now Abercrombie Road bridge. The only evidence of the station is what appears to be a blocked-up entrance on the bridge parapet (not in view).
