History
The station opened on 9 December 1847 by the Edinburgh and Northern Railway. It was a short lived terminus of the Newburgh and North Fife Railway, until Newburgh opened five months later, with a siding that served a loading bank to the west and a signal box also to the west. The station closed on 17 May 1848.[1] The signal box outlived the station, closing in 1904.[2]
