Bridgeton Railway Station

Bridgeton railway station in Bridgeton, Glasgow is a station on the Argyle Line.

It was opened on 1 November 1895 when the line between Glasgow Green and Rutherglen opened. The station became a junction with the opening of the line to Carmyle on 1 February 1897.

In 1956 the line was re-signalled with colour light signals controlled from the re-equipped signal boxes at Bridgeton Cross Junction and Stobcross Junction. However, the station was closed when the line closed on 5 October 1964.

As part of the Argyle Line project, the Rutherglen line platforms reopened on 5 November 1979, offering regular commuter services into Central Station (low level) and on towards the western suburbs.

Normal weekday services consist of four trains per hour westbound, and four trains per hour eastbound.
