Ladysbridge railway station was a station in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Opened as Lady's Bridge railway station in 1859[1] it was renamed Ladysbridge railway station by June 1886.[1] The station was in the Parish of Boyndie close to the Banff County Lunatic Asylum or Ladysbridge Hospital.[2] The line from Tillynaught opened in 1859 and a temporary terminus opened at Banff on 30 July 1859 and a permanent station opened in 1860.[3] There was a single platform.

The Great North of Scotland Railway (GNoSR) took over the line in 1867 and operated it until grouping in 1923. Passing into British Railways ownership in 1948, the line was, like the rest of the former GNoSR lines along the Moray coast, considered for closure as part of the Beeching report and closure notices were issued in 1963.[4] Passenger services were withdrawn in July 1964 and the entire line, including Banff station finally closed to all traffic in 1968.
