Old Photograph Railway Station Buckie Scotland
Old photograph of the railway station in Buckie on the Moray Firth, Scotland. The station was opened by the Great North of Scotland Railway on its Moray Firth coast line in 1886, served by Aberdeen to Elgin trains. The Highland Railway had opened another station in Buckie two years previously, on a branch from Keith, but this closed in 1915. The Great North of Scotland Railway was absorbed by the London and North Eastern Railway in 1921 and became part of British Railways when the railways were nationalised in 1948. The station was closed on 6 May 1968. Blog post of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to travel and visit one day.
