Saughtree railway station is a closed railway station situated a mile north of the hamlet of Saughtree and two miles from the border with England.
Services to the station were never frequent, due to its remote location (the nearest settlement being a mile distant) – only a single train each way was timetabled to call on Mondays, Thursdays & Saturdays, to allow the handful of regular passengers to travel to Hawick to shop.
The service was suspended altogether on 1 December 1944 as a wartime economy measure, eventually being reinstated in August 1948.
[1] The line was closed to passengers by British Railways in October 1956[2] and completely two years later.
The station building and platform have been restored and 400 yards of new track laid.
