Scope and Content Milngavie Railway Station, Fulton Road, Milngavie, East Dunbartonshire This shows the shelter on the platform added when the line was doubled in about 1900. This platform has two faces, giving the terminus three platforms altogether. The seat is a typical North British Railway item. This station has survived with little alteration, apart from the removal of the goods station. The small building in this view is still there, though the far platform line has been removed. This station was opened in 1863 by the Edinburgh & Glasgow Railway as the passenger terminus of a branch to Milngavie from the Glasgow, Dumbarton & Helensburgh Railway, which the Edinburgh & Glasgow had absorbed in 1862. A goods-only line extended beyond this station, serving a paper mill. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
