Railway Station - 4

This series of photographs were taken on the last day of public service, before the station closed for the last time. The 3-car DMU made its last journey from Kilmacolm to Glasgow Central. Originally the line ran west to Greenock, but the tracks were truncated at Kilmacolm in September 1966 and it became the north western terminus of the Paisley Canal Line. This view shows the scene from the DMU cab looking towards Greenock, and the end of the line at Kilmacolm station.

The station and the rest of the line closed on 10 January 1983. The site of the station is now occupied by a Public House.
