Beith North railway station

Beith North railway station was a railway station serving the north of the town of Beith, North Ayrshire, Scotland. The station was originally part of the Glasgow, Paisley, Kilmarnock and Ayr Railway.

History

The station opened on 21 July 1840 when it was simply known as Beith. Upon the grouping of the G&SWR into the London, Midland and Scottish Railway in 1923, the station was renamed Beith North on 2 June 1924. The name change was to avoid confusion with the Caledonian/G&SW jointly owned nearby station of same the name, which was also incorporated into the LMS. Beith North closed permanently on 4 June 1951.
