History

The station first opened on 21 February 1862 by the Keith and Dufftown Railway. There was a goods yard to the southwest, which is used for stock shortage nowadays. The station closed on 6 May 1968 to passengers.[1][2] The line for westbound trains was lifted shortly after. Goods traffic ceased around 1991. In 2003, the Keith and Dufftown Association reopened the station and the line as a preserved railway and set up their headquarters at the station.
