This station replaced the original so the line to Galashiels could be extended.
The three remaining sidings could only be accessed from the south and they ran diagonally across the yard.
The original station buildings were used as temporary waiting rooms while a new one was constructed.
The station closed to passengers and goods traffic on 5 February 1962[1] and track lifting was complete on the following year.
