Spey Bay railway station was a railway station in Spey Bay, Moray. The railway station was opened by the Great North of Scotland Railway (GNoSR) on its Moray Firth coast line in 1886,[1] served by Aberdeen to Elgin trains. The station was originally named Fochabers-on-Spey railway station on 1 May 1886.[1] In November 1893 it became Fochabers railway station,[1]Fochabers and Spey Bay railway station on 1 January 1916[1] before finally becoming on 1 January 1918 Spey Bay railway station.[2] It closed to regular passenger traffic on 6 May 1968 on the same date as the line itself.[2][3]
In 1923 the GNoSR became part of the London and North Eastern Railway and at nationalisation in 1948 became part of British Railways. The line was recommended for closure by Dr Beeching's report "The Reshaping of British Railways" and closed on 6 May 1968.
