Arbroath Lady Loan railway station served the town of Arbroath, Angus, Scotland from 1838 to 1848 on the Dundee and Arbroath Railway.

History

The station opened on 8 October 1838 on the Dundee and Arbroath Railway. It was situated west of the harbour, which opened a year later. It had a locomotive shed and a turntable. The tramway that it used couldn't be upgraded to a railway so it closed when the new Arbroath station opened on 1 February 1848.[1][2]
