Old Photograph Enzie Scotland
Old photograph of a horse and cart outside cottages in Enzie, Scotland. Enzie used to have a railway station that was served by trains on the Buckie and Portessie Branch north of Keith. The station was opened by the Highland Railway in 1884 and had a short life with services being suspended during World War I on 9 August 1915 and the rails south of Buckie removed, although it was hoped to restart services. The line remained closed in 1923, when the Highland Railway was absorbed by the London, Midland and Scottish Railway. After this the track was relaid, but services were not restarted and the track removed again in 1937. The station site is now occupied by a house.
