Sinclairtown Railway Station
Sinclairtown railway station served the suburb of Sinclairtown, Fife, Scotland from 1847 to 1969 on the Edinburgh and Northern Railway.
History
The station opened on 17 September 1847 by the Edinburgh and Northern Railway. The goods yard was to the west and the signal box was on the west side of the eastbound platform. Another goods yard was built to the south. A siding further to the west served Dunniker Colliery. The first site of the station closed in 1909 and was relocated later in the year. The signal box was moved west of the goods yard. The station closed on 1 January 1917 but reopened again on 2 March 1919 before finally closing on 6 October 1969.
