A' Bhruaich - Fraserburgh Train Station

A' Bhruaich, locally referred to as "The Broch"is a town in Aberdeenshire - Fraserburgh railway station opened in 1865 and closed to passengers in 1965. The railway line was built by the Formartine and Buchan Railway Company, which became part of the Great North of Scotland Railway. In 1923 the GNSR was incorporated into the London and North Eastern Railway, which was in turn nationalised on 1 January 1948. Passenger services on the Buchan lines were withdrawn in 1965 as part of the Beeching cuts. Freight trains continued to operate Fraserburgh until 1979. The track was subsequently lifted. The GNSR engine shed and BR goods offices remain in alternative uses.
