Guardbridge railway station served the village of Guardbridge, Fife, Scotland from 1862 to 1965 on The St. Andrews Railway.
History[]
The station opened on 1 July 1852 by The St. Andrews Railway. To the south was the signal box, to the west was the goods yard and Seggie Brick and Tile Works and to the north was Guardbridge Paper Mill. This closed in 2008. The station closed to both passengers and goods traffic on 6 September 1965.[1] The signal box became a gate box in 1967. The only remains of the station are the viaduct piers and the railway cottages to the north.[2]
