Montrose ( mon-TROHZ; Scottish Gaelic: Mon Rois [mɔn ˈrˠɔʃ]) is a town and former royal burgh in Angus, Scotland. Situated 28 miles (45 kilometres) north of Dundee and 37 miles (60 kilometres) south of Aberdeen, Montrose lies between the mouths of the North and South Esk rivers. It is the northernmost coastal town in Angus and developed as a natural harbour that traded in skins, hides, and cured salmon in medieval times. With a population of approximately 12,000, the town functions as a port, but the major employer is GlaxoSmithKline, which was saved from closure in 2006. The skyline of Montrose is dominated by the 220-foot (67 m) steeple of Old and St Andrew's Church, designed by James Gillespie Graham and built between 1832 and 1834. Montrose is a town with a wealth of architecture, and is a centre for international trade. It is an important commercial port for the oil and gas industry. It is known for its wide thoroughfare and high street, which leads to picturesque closes containing secluded gardens. The town has a view of a tidal lagoon, Montrose Basin, which is considered a nature reserve of international importance. It is the largest inland salt water basin in the UK, and an important habitat for the mute swan. Just outside Montrose is the 18th-century House of Dun, designed by the Scottish architect William Adam and built in 1730 for David Erskine, Lord Dun, 13th Laird of Dun.

Montrose railway station was opened on 1 February 1848 by the Aberdeen Railway as a terminus of a short branch from Dubton Junction. Services initially comprised trains to the junction at Dubton, with some continuing through to Brechin. When the Montrose and Bervie Railway opened on 1 November 1865, its trains were initially worked by the Scottish North Eastern Railway and used this station. These working were taken over by the Caledonian Railway when it took over the SNER. These services were transferred to Montrose railway station when the North British Railway built its new line from Arbroath to Kinnaber (the North British, Arbroath and Montrose Railway). It was closed to passengers on 30 April 1934 and trains from Dubton ran into the former North British Railway station in Montrose. The area of the extensive sidings at this station has now been built on with houses. The station building remains as a retirement home but its extensive trainshed has been removed and replaced with a tasteful canopy. The building has been stone-cleaned. The station was closed in preference to the other station in Montrose which was on the Dundee to Aberdeen main line rather than the terminus of a short branch.
