| Description |
English: Portsoy 1st railway station (site), Aberdeenshire Opened in 1859 by the Banff Portsoy & Strathisla Railway, later part of the Great North of Scotland Railway, as the terminus of its short branch from Tillynaught, this station closed to passengers in 1884 when it was replaced by the 2nd station some 200m to the south. The 1st station continued for goods, probably until the railway closed in 1968 (needs confirmation). View north towards the buffers. Hidden by the later shed on the left is the still extant station building. Until 1910, a steep goods line ran past the right hand side of the trainshed, down to Portsoy harbour. The site was used as a council recycling yard when this image was taken. Being mostly wooden, this is a remarkable survivor from 1859. |
