Dumbarton East railway station

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dumbarton East railway station is a railway station serving the town of Dumbarton in the West Dunbartonshire region of Scotland. The station is managed by First ScotRail and is served by trains on the North Clyde Line.

Unlike the majority of the North Clyde line stations, this is an island platform betraying its Caledonian Railway origins. At the time of electrification in 1961, the North British formation from Bowling was abandoned (except a short spur to serve Bowling Oil Terminal), with a short link line between the North British and Caledonian formations being constructed. The North British formation is regained between Dumbarton East and Dumbarton Central station at the site of the junction between the two railways.
