I think we missed the closed station of Castle Douglas (St Andrews), on the Kirkcudbright branch between Bridge of Dee and the Portpatrick Line Junction.

I think we missed the closed station of Castle Douglas (St Andrews), on the Kirkcudbright branch between Bridge of Dee and the Portpatrick Line Junction.

Well noticed. The Wikipedia topography section on their article of the Kirkcudbright Railway show this with dates of both the stations opening and the station closure, but it appears to have been omitted on their associated line template.

I have now added it to the line template, showing the station name stated in the article topography section.
