Dalmuir railway station is a railway station serving the Dalmuir area of Clydebank,West Dunbartonshire,Scotland. It is a large,five-platform interchange between the Argyle Line,North Clyde Line and West Highland Line,between Singer and Clydebank (both to the south-east) and Kilpatrick (to the north-west). It is situated 9 miles 71 chains (15.9 km) from Glasgow Queen Street,measured via Westerton and Maryhill. [4]
The original two-platform station opened on 31 May 1858. [3] The station was relocated to its current location in May 1897 by the North British Railway and enlarged to four platforms to accommodate the extension of the Glasgow,Yoker and Clydebank Railway from Clydebank. [5] The station was known as Dalmuir Park between 1952 and 1973. [3] A fifth platform was added as part of the Argyle Line expansion in 1979.[ citation needed ]
There are four through platforms,two on the Yoker branch and two on the Singer branch along with a terminal bay platform from the Yoker branch. [4] The two inner platforms link up at the north end of the station,where there were formerly two footbridges - one spanning each pair of lines;however these were dismantled after being replaced by a new,fully disability-accessible bridge fitted with three lifts that links all five platforms in 2009.
