Details Site of railway station. The Aberdeen Railway first opened its line from the south to a temporary station at Ferryhill on 16 March 1850. Many delays had been experience in building the railway, due to the large number of major viaducts, rock cuttings, embankments and bridges needed. Because of this the official opening was a fortnight later, on the 30th March. Ferryhill station was the terminus of the Aberdeen Railway entering Aberdeen from the south. It was later closed on 2 August 1854, being replaced (successively) by Guild Street Station (NJ90NW0077) and then the Joint Station (opened in 1867) - see NJ90NW0073.
