History
This station was opened on 1 November 1849 by the Aberdeen Railway. It was a temporary terminus, with coach connections to Portlethen and Aberdeen.[1] It operated for five months, as the railway was extended and a new terminus, Aberdeen Ferryhill railway station, was opened on 1 April 1850.[2]
