Arnage railway station was a railway station in Arnage, Aberdeenshire.

History

Opened by the Formartine and Buchan Railway, then part of the Great North of Scotland Railway, it became part of the London and North Eastern Railway during the Grouping of 1923, passing on to the Scottish Region of British Railways during the nationalisation of 1948. It was then closed by the British Railways Board.

The station had two platforms and a footbridge.

The station today

The station site is overgrown, however the platforms and station house are still in situ. The trackbed is part of the Formartine and Buchan Way.
