Background
History
The station was opened on 1 February 1862 by the North British Railway. It was situated at the end of an approach road and half a mile southwest of the hamlet of Lanehead. The platform was on the down side with a siding and goods dock. There was a two-ton crane on the dock and the station was able to cope with most sorts of goods including vehicles and livestock. The station was host to a LNER camping coach from 1936 to 1939. The station was downgraded to an unstaffed halt on 9 September 1955 when it was renamed Tarset Halt.
