*************

Wick railway station is a railway station located in Wick, in the Highland council area in the far north of Scotland. It serves the town of Wick and other surrounding areas in the historic county of Caithness, including Staxigoe, Papigoe and Haster. The station lies adjacent to Caithness General Hospital and Wick police station; it is also the nearest station to Wick Airport (about 1.1 miles (1.8 km) to the north), although no passenger flights currently operate, and to the village of John o' Groats (approximately 17 miles (27 km) to the north) at the northeastern tip of mainland Britain.

The station is the terminus of the Far North Line, 161 miles 35 chains (259.8 km) from Inverness.[4] It is managed by Abellio ScotRail, which also operates all trains serving the station.
