Drybridge Platform railway station or Drybridge railway station [4][5] was a station which served the hamlet of that name in the parish of Rathven and in addition provided transport for the inhabitants of the Parish of Deskford,[6] Scottish county of Moray. It was served by trains on the Buckie and Portessie Branch north of Keith.
The station was renamed Letterfourie station, the title of the nearby estate by the LMS[3] and this name is used on the 1928[7] and the 1938 OS maps.[8]
