Gretna railway station was a railway station close to Gretna Green in Scotland. The Caledonian Railway, however, built the station just south of Gretna Junction and the England/Scotland border, in Cumberland (now Cumbria).
History The station opened on 9 September 1847. It closed on 10 September 1951.
Very little remains of the station in 2008.
The Caledonian Railway station was one of three serving Gretna, the others being: Gretna built by Glasgow, Dumfries and Carlisle Railway in 1848 (successor station open) Gretna built by the Border Union Railway in 1861, closing in 1915.
A short distance to the north on the Caledonian Railway are Quintinshill loops, the site of the rail crash in 1915.
