It's quite incredible that some nutters misreading their title deeds have managed to get a mainline railway station closed, even temporarily. Presumably it being in the middle of nowhere and barely used by anyone made all the difference.
I enjoyed this paragraph from Dixe Wills's Tiny Stations which features on the station's Wikipedia page. Sounds like the couple in question have been doing too much intense despondent brooding.
"What is all the more remarkable is that the following events took place in the vicinity of the most remote station on my itinerary, a place girded round by peat-black lochs and dismal bogs and overshadowed by dark, anonymous plantations of doomed conifers, where nothing of any note has happened these past 70 years save for intense despondent brooding."
