(Institute Civil Engineers Historic Engineering Works no. HEW 0600)

All that remains of his 1874 Wick Station is the terminal building whose interior was refurbished in 1999. The original cast-iron name and date plaque can be seen below the trifoil under the small gable.

This station was also the terminus for a light railway which ran from Wick to Lybster from 1903–44.
