Eastriggs railway station

Eastriggs railway station was a railway station in Dumfries and Galloway between Annan and Gretna.

Dumfries and Galloway Council are trying to find funding to reopen the station.

History
The station opened 23 August 1848 as Dornock. Six years later it was closed for a period of 11 years, from October 1854 until 2 January 1865. It was renamed as Eastriggs by the London Midland and Scottish Railway on 1 May 1923.

The station closed on 6 December 1965, although the line through the station is still open.

Station buildings still exist, currently as private houses.

Reports between 2022 and 2023 show that Transport Scotland has dismissed the plans of the Eastriggs Railway Station Action Group (ERSAG) for the re-opening of Eastriggs railway station.
