Balgray railway station is a proposed railway station that will serve communities to the south of Barrhead (particularly Springhall and Auchenback) on the Neilston branch of the Cathcart Circle Lines.[1] The name of the proposed new station was chosen as the station will be located next to Balgray Reservoir, part of the Dams to Darnley Country Park.
A plan to open this station was announced by Network Rail on 23 November 2023 with construction expecting to commence in 2024.[1] Funding for the station will come from the Glasgow City Region City Deal, and delivered in partnership with East Renfrewshire Council.
A planned railway station, Lyoncross railway station, was partially built on the line close to the location but never opened to the public. The intended location of the station can be discerned by the widening of the tracks just east of Aurs Road between Newton Mearns and Barrhead.
Another disused station, Barrhead South railway station on the Paisley and Barrhead District Railway was also located nearby.
Facilities
The new station is proposed to include:
- bus turning station
- car parking
- active travel links
- direct connection to Dams to Darnley Country Park.[2]
Services
Balgray will be an intermediate station on the Glasgow Central — Neilston line.Шаблон:Rail start Шаблон:Rail line Шаблон:S-end
