The station opened on 4 July 1864 by the Leadburn, Linton and Dolphinton Railway. Opposite was a goods siding with another serving a loading bank and to the south was the station building. The station closed on 1 April 1933[1] but trains continued to serve RNAD Coalyburn and RNAD Leadburn through the Second World War. Part of the platform and the loading bank remain today.[2] The train station has now become a house.
