Scope and Content Roxburgh Station, Roxburghshire Roxburgh Station was opened by the North British Railway in 1850 as part of their line from St Boswells to Kelso. It served a small village, so the accommodation was suitably modest. This view shows one of the platforms on the embankment on the left, and the agent's house, which has the Italianate low-pitched roof and open eaves favoured by the North British Railway at that time. Roxburgh became a junction with the opening of the Jedburgh Railway, a branch to the town of that name, which was one of a number of 'cheap railways' promoted in the mid 1850s, when railway finance was hard to come by.
