I think it was moved a short distance at around the time the Biggar branch opened

Updated rules effective from December 2015

(4)....Stations that were closed and had their replacement station built in extreme proximity are NOT allowed as a valid posting entry on this quiz (examples being that of the situation of the first station sites at Blue Pits (Castleton, Manchester),Tollerton, Church Stretton, Prestatyn and at Llandudno Junction). Where a doubt exists as to the knowledge of an actual distance that existed between the two station sites in such a situation, it is hereby decreed that it is better to err on the side of caution and NOT to use it as a posting submission (The example of the situation existing at Whifflet being a good example to cite here).

Symington was only relocated a short distance and falls under rule (4) of the quiz rules
