History

The station opened on 1 July 1863 as Abernethy by the Strathspey Railway. Its name was changed to Nethy Bridge to avoid confusion with Abernethy near Perth. This meant the village was renamed, though the name Abernethy is still in frequent use for the area.

The station closed to both passengers and goods traffic on 18 October 1965.[1]
