Pitfodels railway station[1] or Pitfodels Halt[1] was opened on 2 July 1894 by the GNoSR and served a suburb of Aberdeen with housing and estates such as Wellwood, Inchgarth and Norwood.[2] The halt was one of several victims of the 1937 closure of stations on the Aberdeen suburban service.[3] The Deeside Railway itself ran from Aberdeen (Joint) to Ballater. Pitfodels is located in the parish of Peterculter, Aberdeenshire, Scotland.
