The station opened on 5 May 1862 (its first appearance in the Bradshaw timetable)[1] as Canobie by the Border Union Railway. The station was situated on the north side of the B6357. The station's name was changed to Canonbie on 1 February 1904. The goods yard consisted of a loop serving a two-level cattle dock. To the north was a timber goods shed. After closure to passengers on 15 June 1964, the station remained open to goods traffic until 18 September 1967.[2]
