Dalcross railway station

On 16 October 2015, the principal contractor for the forthcoming modernisation of the Inverness-Aberdeen line was announced. Included in the project is infrastructure that will allow a new station to be built at Dalcross. The original station closed in 1965. This work is due for completion by 2019 and involves double tracking between Aberdeen and Inverurie and similar work to Dalcross at Kintore. Dalcross railway station, which closed in 1965, is due to be re-opened between 2014 and 2019.[3]
