History

The station was opened on 18 July 1861 by the Formartine and Buchan Railway. On the northbound platform was the station building and on the west side was the goods yard. Two signal boxes opened in 1890: north and south. The north signal box was on the north side of the northbound platform and the south signal box was on the west side of the goods yard. The north box was downgraded to a ground frame in 1902 and control passed to the south box. The station closed on 4 October 1965. The signal boxes closed along with it. The station building is now a house.
