History
The station opened on 1 July 1887 by the St Andrews Railway. It originally had one platform but another was later added in 1898 and the original signal box was replaced with one to the east. The goods yard was to the south. The signal box closed in 1926 and the station closed on 22 September 1930.[1][2]

gollark: How did they mess up the frequency? Why are they mentioning the CPU which doesn't actually seem to be in it? What *happened* to the socket? What's the brown stuff on the traces?
gollark: Wow, this is indeed *fractally* weird.
gollark: I just run the actual web version anyway.
gollark: I do know it's Electron-based.
