History
Although the line through the station was opened in July 1850,Шаблон:Sfn the current Balloch station was opened by British Rail and SPTE on 24 April 1988, replacing the former Шаблон:Stnlnk station which was situated immediately north of a level crossing on Balloch Road.[2] Closure of this level crossing was made possible by the closure of the previous terminus station, Balloch Pier, in 1986. The station is located Шаблон:Convert south of where Balloch Pier station stood.[3][4] This relocation allowed the level crossing to be closed.[5]
In 2023, it was announced that Balloch would receive a brand new park & ride facility, at a cost of £50,000.[6] Шаблон:Clear left
