INFORMATION

Sorry, but not so. Limpet Mill was situated between the closed station of Muchalls and the open station of Stonehaven.

It's for me to apologise. Bring on my favourite scapegoat: bloody Tony Dewick and his Complete Atlas, according to which Limpet Mill was between Ferryhill and Cove Bay. Mr. Dewick must come high in the annals of those who are both highly learned, and very often wrong !

Sorry, that was a closed station on the Arbroath and Forfar Railway.

We have just been traversing the closed stations on the Forfar and Brechin Railway and are to access the final line on this journey....The Brechin and Edzell District Railway (note the comment about this line on the journey preamble).

Isn't that the same station, under a different one of its names?

Isn't that the same station, under a different one of its names?

I’m not too sure

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

To answer that query, this was indeed the station with three names in 1912:-
1896-1912...Inchbare
1912-1912...Dunlappie
1912-1931...Stracathro
