History
The station opened on 1 March 1904 by the Scottish Central Railway. To the south were sidings which served nearby collieries and to the north was the signal box. The station closed to both passengers and goods traffic on 11 June 1956.[1] The signal box closed in 2008.[2]

gollark: I can't really do it concurrently because half the operations end up mutating a shared `ImageBuffer`.
gollark: Also, it's really fast, 400ms vs a few seconds for the Haskell program.
gollark: The images are big but I could theoretically drop the color space a bit to shrink them.
gollark: And because of the lack of floats I had to do some of the operations kind of hackily.
