Hairmyres railway station is a railway station in the Hairmyres area of East Kilbride, South Lanarkshire, Greater Glasgow, Scotland. The station is managed by First ScotRail and is on the Glasgow South Western Line 10 rail miles (16 km) southeast of Glasgow Central towards East Kilbride.
The line is single here with a passing loop approximately 500m west towards East Kilbride. Although the line was always single between Busby and East Kilbride, sidings existed to serve the former Radio Times factory in the College Milton Industrial Estate adjacent to the station. These were closed and lifted in the late 1960s. The Hairmyres Hospital is located nearby.
Up until the mid 1990s the area around the station was semi rural, but several new housing schemes have been built up in the area over the last decade or so giving far increased patronage to the station.
The station has a daily half hourly service in each direction northbound to Glasgow Central and southbound to East Kilbride.
