From the Wikipedia article

Gullane railway station served the village of Gullane in Scotland. It was served by the Aberlady, Gullane and North Berwick railway. This line diverged from the North British Railway Main Line at Aberlady Junction, east of the current Longniddry station.

Background

History

The station opened on 1 April 1898 as the terminus of the Aberlady, Gullane and North Berwick Railway when it began operating the line between here and Aberlady junction (on the North British Railway between and ). The line was intended to reach and thereby provide a route to North Berwick, but this section was never constructed and Gullane remained as the terminus. The line and station were absorbed by the North British Railway on 6 August 1900. The Scottish Region continued this use of the buildings, sometimes marketed as Camping Cottages in the 1950s and up to the line closing in 1964. The station was also the location of a camping coach from 1956 to 1964. |lightcol= }}

Description

The houses of Muirfeld Drive and Muirfield Station are built on the old site of Gullane railway station. A railway hotel, the Marine, was built in 1900 and was the main building of the Scottish Fire Service training school. This was closed in March 2015 and converted to housing.
