History

The station opened on 7 March 1864 by the Glasgow and South Western Railway. To the west was the goods shed as well as its respective sidings and a cattle dock which was built in 1894. To the north was the signal box, which opened in 1889, and a siding for the engine shed which was situated at the north end of the platform. In 1955 the engine shed closed and the signal box was replaced with a ground frame. The station closed to both passengers and goods traffic on 3 May 1965.
