History
The station opened on 17 September 1847 by the Edinburgh and Northern Railway. The goods yard was to the west and the signal box was on the west side of the eastbound platform. Another goods yard was built to the south. A siding further to the west served Dunniker Colliery. The first site of the station closed in 1909 and was relocated later in the year.[1] The signal box was moved west of the goods yard.[2] The station closed on 1 January 1917 but reopened again on 2 March 1919 before finally closing on 6 October 1969.[3]
gollark: I probably get away with doing a lot of stuff weirdly because I have a lot of free time and very little actual demand on my server stuff, since the only user is me. Though I do have a lot of important data and random services.
gollark: I just use entirely open-source software on my servers (except gameservers and probably some drivers), and don't have to deal with that sort of problem.
gollark: My stuff displays it just as % utilization with separate frequency graphs per core.
gollark: Measuring it in terms of frequency makes no sense, though. Modern CPUs change their frequency all the time in response to demand, for one thing.
gollark: Measuring CPU usage by *frequency* instead of % seems *really* weird to me.
