Keith railway station

Keith railway station is a railway station serving the town of Keith, Moray, Scotland. The station is managed by ScotRail and is on the Aberdeen to Inverness Line, between Huntly and Elgin, measured 53 miles 8 chains from Aberdeen, or 30 miles 20 chains from Forres.
The station was originally owned by the Highland Railway and was known as Keith Junction, the line from the west having opened by the Inverness and Aberdeen Junction Railway in 1858 and becoming part of the Highland Railway in 1865. It was the point where the line from Inverness made an end-on junction with the Great North of Scotland Railway from Aberdeen to enable exchange of goods and passengers. As built, it was located in the vee of the routes to Inverness and to Dufftown and had four platforms - one through one for each route, plus two east facing bays for GNSR services. It was taken over by the London, Midland and Scottish Railway at the 1923 Grouping and then became part of the Scottish Region of British Railways upon nationalisation in 1948.
