Clydebank railway station is arailway station serving the town ofClydebank inWest Dunbartonshire, Scotland. It is located on theArgyle Line and theNorth Clyde Line. Passenger services are operated byScotRail.
The station (which was formerly known asClydebank Central) dates from 1897, when theNorth British Railway commissioned a link line from the formerGlasgow, Yoker and Clydebank Railway route fromJordanhill through toDalmuir on theGlasgow, Dumbarton and Helensburgh Railway. It replaced the original GY&CR Clydebank terminus, which was then renamedClydebank East (closed in 1959).
The station is staffed part-time and has two platforms on a high level. It is served by 4 to 6 trains per hour:
On a Sunday, trains stop every 30 minutes operating betweenBalloch and Motherwell.
The basic daytime weekday service from the station is 4 trains per hour each way (15 minute intervals). Eastbound these run alternately to Springburn via Queen St L.L and to Motherwell via Central L.L andBellshill; every second service on the latter route is extended toLanark. Westbound, all services terminate at Dalmuir. In the evenings, the frequency drops to half-hourly but trains run through to Edinburgh via Queen St L.L andBathgate eastbound and to Helensburgh Central westbound.[3]
On Sundays, the service is half-hourly each way to Balloch & Motherwell.
The basic service frequency from here remain unchanged, but alternate westbound trains now extend toDumbarton Central & eastbound trains now run alternately to eitherCumbernauld via Queen St L.L or toWhifflet/Motherwell via Central L.L. Arrivals on the Argyle Line are from Motherwell via Hamilton, with alternating services running through fromCumbernauld. This frequency now operates throughout the day until end of service. The Sunday service to Balloch is still half hourly but southeast-bound trains now run alternately either to Motherwell viaWhifflet or Larkhall.[4]
