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.
