This was a single platform station between Drem and North Berwick stations. The platform was on the east side of the line. The original small station building was later replaced with a larger building, a small version of the typical North British Railway style building. A railway cottage was just to the east, on the station approach.

This was the short lived terminus of the North Berwick branch allowing the line to open before the line was extended into the terminus. The approach to the permanent station was made via a cutting which was time consuming and expensive to built.

This was a two platform terminus with substantial station buildings on both platforms. The station frontage had a considerable awning. There was a goods yard on the south/east side of the passenger station and the locomotive shed at the west end on the north side of the line. Opposite this was the signal box, closed in 1968.
