Old Photographs Railway Station Keith Scotland

Old photograph of the railway station in Keith, Moray, Scotland. Keith Town railway station was on the Great North of Scotland Railway branch line to Dufftown, first opened in 1862, and subsequently extended to Boat of Garten via Craigellachie, this was much nearer the centre of Keith than the Junction station. The Dufftown and Craigellachie line was closed to passengers by British Railways in May 1968 as a result of the Beeching Axe, though freight traffic and latterly Northern Belle excursion trains to the whisky distillery at Dufftown kept the route to there open until 1991.
