Details Railway station, still in use. Keith Junction Station was opened as Keith Station 1858 by the Inverness and Aberdeen Junction and Great North of Scotland Railways. It was renamed Keith Junction Station at an unspecified time by the London, Midland and Scottish Railway and reverted to the name Keith Station on 12 May 1980. Formerly a 4-platform through station and terminal station with 2-bay platforms at the west end. These, and the Highland Railway platforms at the west end, had substantial awnings supported on cast-iron columns (all now removed). Offices were in a 1- and 2-storey rubble range. The station is shown on the OS 2nd edition map which also shows a hotel, crane, two engine sheds, three goods sheds (one of which still survives, one, now demolished, had round-headed windows and elliptical-arched doors) and a goods yard. The signal box, east of the station and still in use, does not appear on the 2nd edition map. The junction was rebuilt in 1905. Remains open to regular passenger traffic as a 1-platform through station, with only one of the original buildings surviving. The station office is housed in a new building.
