It's full steam ahead for the plans - despite some fears from neighbours it was 'in the wrong location'.

Cults station now has a cafe just off the former platform, in the guise of a container. I did not get the chance to sample the fare despite the good weather. I think they mean the Up platform ...

Cults Station building dating from 1894 replaced the original structure from 1853 (which had been moved on a train from its original location a few hundred yards east in 1855). It has the typical piended (hipped) roof of stations on the Deeside Line. The Up platform is heavily overgrown but intact whereas currently there is no obvious sign of the Down platform; in fact it is hidden behind a row of trees. The building is extended for light industrial use and lies close to the North Deeside Road and is easily accessible on foot off Station Road (private parking only). The walk/cycle/bridleway is part of the Deeside Way route from Duthie Park, Aberdeen to Ballater. In the early 20th Century not only did Cults have two stations but also on-street trams. A photo of these latter is displayed in the toilets of the nearby Cults Hotel.

A new sign has appeared on the running in board at the closed Cults station. The butterflies may be related to the cafe on the other side of the building.
