The station opened on 2 June 1860 on the Alford Valley Railway a year after the 16.5 miles line between Kintore and Alford.
Originally the station had one platform on the south side of the single track railway, and one siding to the west of the station. By 1900 the line through the station had become a passing loop and there were two platforms connected with a footbridge, a signal box was located to the east. There were three sidings that were able to accommodate most types of goods including live stock.
