This line was built by the Aberdeen Railway in the 1840s. It closed for passenger traffic during the early 1950s with final closure undertaken by British Rail in 1981. Brechin to Bridge of DunThe line has now been re-instated and preserved for {{convert|4|mi|km}} between Brechin railway station and Bridge of Dun railway station and since 1993 trains have run at weekends during the summer as well as on special occasions at other times of the year. The two railway stations have also been refurbished. Although the line originally went all the way to Montrose, which is still a station on the main rail network, there are currently no immediate plans to link the Brechin line back into the main rail network, as the section at Dubton through and onto Kinnaber Junction close to Montrose itself has now been redeveloped, making it difficult for the preserved railway to be reconnected to the national network at all. Proposed extensionHowever, there is still hope of seeing the "CR Brechin" extended a further {{convert|3+1/2|mi|km|1}} to Dubton, bringing it up to a total of {{convert|7+1/2|mi|km|1}} in length. This is a long term aim which would only require the re-instatement of a short length of track. Locomotives
