Gorebridge railway station

Gorebridge station site prior to reopening

The original station opened on 14 July 1847 as part of the North British Railway's new line that was to reach Hawick and Carlisle. The station closed to passengers on 6 January 1969 as part of the overall closure of the Waverley route between Edinburgh and Carlisle.[1]

The station and line reopened on 6 September 2015 on the new Borders Railway a new project reopening part of the old Waverley Line between Edinburgh and Tweedbank, just beyond Galashiels.[2] The new construction work was undertaken by BAM Nuttall on behalf of Network Rail and Transport Scotland.

There is a half-hourly service from here towards Edinburgh and Tweedbank, calling all stations except Stow which is served hourly off-peak.
