Inverurie railway station is a railway station serving the town of Inverurie, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. The station is managed by First ScotRail and is on the Aberdeen to Inverness Line.
Campaigners for a railway station in Hawick, in the Scottish Borders have countered arguments that a station would be economically unviable by using Inverurie as an example that other towns with populations under 15,000 have stations that are viable.
Inverurie currently retains a sizeable, though disused, freight yard adjacent to the station.
