Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use British English Шаблон:Infobox station Drumgelloch railway station was a railway station serving Drumgelloch, an eastern suburb of Airdrie, North Lanarkshire, Scotland. The station was managed by First ScotRail and was the eastern terminus of the North Clyde Line, 20 km (12½ miles) east of Шаблон:Stnlnk from May 1989 to May 2010.
History
The station was opened in 1989 by British Rail as the terminus of a short extension of the existing line from Airdrie, although the line to Bathgate Upper that passed through here had been closed to all traffic seven years earlier (passenger services having ceased in 1956).
The North Clyde Line has been extended eastwards beyond Drumgelloch towards Шаблон:Stnlnk, connecting with the Edinburgh–Bathgate line. Plans for the project (termed the Airdrie–Bathgate rail link) were approved by the Scottish Parliament in March 2007 and received Royal Assent in May 2007.
Work commenced in 2008. As part of this project, the 1989 single platform Drumgelloch station was closed on 9 May 2010. A substitute bus service was provided until a new station at a new site 550 metres further east was opened on 6 March 2011.[1]
Services
There was a half-hourly service each day from Drumgelloch to Шаблон:Stnlnk and Шаблон:Stnlnk.
