Parkside Halt was a railway station located between Ulbster and Lybster, Highland. This is not a widely known railway station, however it is a very old and significant one; known by residents nearby.

History

The station was opened on the Wick and Lybster Railway by the LMS in 1938. As with the other stations on the line, the station was closed from 3 April 1944. The station was a halt, which means it did not have a full range of facilities or services. It was primarily used for local passenger traffic and possibly some freight services.
