The same picture appears inside a book published by the railway archives and is dated c1865[1]. The image from the railway archives appears to the right. It shows that the image has been cropped. The uncropped image discloses that the locomotive at the station is locomotive number 7. Despite the station opening on 1st April, 1867, the photo could have been taken c1865 as the line was actually built in 1864[2]. It also depends on how close "circa" is to 1865.
