Barry Links railway station serves the village of Barry, west of Carnoustie, Angus, Scotland. The station was originally opened on 31 July 1851 as Barry on the Dundee and Arbroath Railway, and renamed to its current name on 1 April 1919.
In the Strategic Rail Authority’s 2002/3 financial year, only three fare-paying people (excluding season ticket holders) boarded trains at Barry Links station, and five disembarked, making it the least busy station in the United Kingdom, with Gainsborough Central. In the 2004/05 financial year, the station's exits increased to 26, raising its position to the third least used station in the United Kingdom.
