History
The station opened in 1849 by the Aberdeen Railway. There was a goods yard at the east side of the line. The station closed to both passengers and goods traffic in 1950.[1] Nothing remains of the station, however its location can be best estimated by the location of the Muchalls Peace Sign, which is located nearby.[2] The peace sign is visible from Marine Terrace, Muchalls just south of the junction with Walker Drive.
