History
The station was opened in 1891 by North British Railway as part of the Easter Road Deviation to replace the rope operated incline between Canal Street (later part of Edinburgh Waverley) and Scotland Street, that was originally built by the Edinburgh, Leith and Newhaven Railway. The station closed in 1947. Part of the line from Piershill remained in use to serve the waste consolidation depot at Powderhall which remained in use until it closed in 2016. Both platforms still remain in place.
