Hyndland railway station serves Hyndland in Glasgow, Scotland. The station is Шаблон:Convert west of Шаблон:Stnlnk and Шаблон:Convert west of Glasgow Queen Street on the Argyle and North Clyde Lines. It is managed by ScotRail.

The station was opened by British Railways as part of the electrification of the North Clyde Lines on 5 November 1960, replacing a nearby Hyndland (Stobcross Railway) railway station which was located at the end of a short branch line from Partickhill. This was subsequently adapted for use as an EMU maintenance depot, but eventually closed in 1987. The branch has since been lifted and the site redeveloped.

The lines of the old Lanarkshire and Dunbartonshire Railway (now closed) passed under the east end of the station in a tunnel adjacent to their Шаблон:Rws station. Immediately to the west of the station is Hyndland East Junction where the Yoker and Singer (including the Milngavie branch) lines diverge.

Hyndland station is accessible from the surrounding areas of Hyndland, Broomhill and Hughenden and also serves the nearby Gartnavel General Hospital, Gartnavel Royal Hospital and Glasgow Homoeopathic Hospital.

A ceramic mural called "Wonderful Trains" by the children of Hyndland Secondary School marks the station's entrance tunnel.[1] It was commissioned to celebrate Glasgow's year as European City of Culture in 1990.[2]

In 2017, a local domestic cat became associated with the station.[3][4]

2014/15 (From 9 December 2014)

There are a total of 14 trains per hour, off-peak (daytime), in each direction.[5]

In the evenings, services on the Argyle line continue to run as above, but the North Clyde line is reduced to:

  • 2 tph Cumbernauld to and from Balloch, via Singer
  • 2 tph Edinburgh Waverley to and from Helensburgh Central, via Yoker

On Sundays, there is a simplified service pattern in operation with half-hourly services on the following routes:

  • Helensburgh Central to and from Edinburgh Waverley via Singer
  • Balloch to and from Rutherglen via Yoker (services on this route then proceed alternately to Motherwell via Whifflet or to Larkhall)
  • Milngavie to and from Motherwell via Hamilton.

There is no direct service to Springburn or Cumbernauld, but connections are available (once per hour) at Partick.

2016

Minor alterations were made to the weekday service pattern at the December 2015 timetable change, notably extending 2 of the Dalmuir via Yoker trains (those from Cumbernauld via Springburn) each way to Шаблон:Rws and maintaining the daytime timetable on the North Clyde routes through the evening until end of service (though the Milngavie to Edinburgh service still does not run after 7pm)[6]
