Kinghorn is a coastal station on the Fife Circle line between Edinburgh and Dundee. Opened in 1847 by the Edinburgh and Northern Railway the railway splits the old town in two. At first the railway caused a drop in Kinghorn's fortunes removing ferry traffic from the area but once the Forth Bridge was built the town was very successfully promoted as a seaside resort. The station looks out across the Firth of Forth and includes wee windows in the fence so that even small terriers can enjoy the view from the platform!
