Gorebridge railway station

Gorebridge railway station was a railway station serving the town of Gorebridge, Midlothian, Scotland.

History
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.

Reconstruction
As of 2013, work is proceeding to reopen part of the future Waverley Line, a new project planning to run between Edinburgh and Tweedbank, just beyond Galashiels. The station is (as of 2013) expected to reopen by 2016. The new construction work is being undertaken by BAM Nuttall on behalf of Network Rail and Transport Scotland.

There is to be a half-hourly service to start from here towards Edinburgh, which will be further supplemented by an hourly express service.
