List of Great North of Scotland Railway stations

The communities that were served by the Great North of Scotland Railway

When, on 1 January 1923, the Great North of Scotland Railway (GNoSR) merged with other railways to become the London and North Eastern Railway, it owned 333 13 miles (536.4 km) of line.[1] Its main line, from Aberdeen in Scotland to Elgin via Keith, served branches to Fraserburgh and Peterhead, Alford, Oldmeldrum, Macduff, Banff, Boat of Garten and Lossiemouth. The GNoSR operated two routes to Elgin, one via Moray Firth, known as the Coast line, and another via Keith and Craigelliache; these connected with the Highland Railway at Keith and Elgin for services to Inverness. Another line, used by the reigning monarch when they travelled to Balmoral Castle, connected Aberdeen with Ballater.

Main line

The first section of Great North of Scotland's main line opened in 1854 from Kittybrewster to Huntly[2] and was extended two years later to Keith.[3] A through route to Inverness was formed in 1858 when was to become the Highland Railway reached the station and a junction was formed.[4] Services ran to a terminus in Aberdeen at Waterloo from 1856[5] before Aberdeen joint station opened in 1867.[6] The line was extended at the country end to Dufftown in 1862.[7] Meanwhile, the Morayshire Railway had built a line from Rothes to Craigellachie,[8] and subsequently linked this line to its Elgin station in 1862.[9] This was connected to the GNoSR when the Strathspey Railway opened in 1863.[10]

The GNoSR ran suburban services between Aberdeen and Dyce from 1887 and 1937.[11] The old GNoSR main line west of Keith and the Coast line closed on 6 May 1968;[12] on the same day services were withdrawn from minor intermediate stations. Currently the Aberdeen to Inverness Line uses the former Great North of Scotland Railway line as far Keith, with intermediate stations at Dyce, Inverurie, Insch, Huntly and Keith, before continuing over the former Highland Railway route to Inverness.

Coast line

The railway from Grange to Portsoy via Tillynaught was opened by the Banff, Portsoy and Strathisla Railway on 30 July 1859, with full services from 2 August following a derailment on the opening day. The GNoSR operated services from 1863; these ran from Grange to Banff with a connection at Tillynaught.[92] This became an alternate route from Aberdeen to Elgin when the coast line had fully opened in 1886, a new curve allowing direct access from Aberdeen. Cairnie Platform (later Cairnie Junction) was built to allow trains to divide, with portions for Elgin via Craigellachie and the Coast Line.[93] Direct access to Grange from the line was withdrawn after the curve closed on 7 March 1960 and the line closed completely on 6 May 1968.[13]

Lossiemouth branch

The Lossiemouth branch was built by the Morayshire Railway from its Elgin station on 10 August 1852.[49] Worked by the GNoSR since 1863, the Morayshire Railway was absorbed by the GNoSR in August 1881.[51] The line was closed to passengers on 6 April 1964 and completely two years later.[12]

Deeside section

The Deeside Railway opened from Ferryhill to Banchory on 8 September 1853 and services were extended to Guild Street when this opened the following year.[127] A new company, the Aboyne Extension opened the line to Aboyne in 1859, and the Aboyne & Braemar Railway extended the line to Ballater in 1866.[128] The Aberdeen joint station became the terminus when this opened in 1867.[6] The Deeside Railway was leased by the GNoSR from 1866 who absorbed the Deeside Railway on 1 August 1875 and the Aboyne & Braemar Railway on 31 January 1876.[129] The line closed to passengers on 28 February 1966, the section west of Culter completely on 18 July 1966 and the remaining section completely 2 January 1967.[12]
