Elderslie railway station was a railway station serving the west of Elderslie, Scotland originally as part of the Glasgow, Paisley, Kilmarnock and Ayr Railway (now the Ayrshire Coast Line).

History

The station opened on 21 July 1840.Butt, page 90] To the east of the station was Canal Junction, with the line dividing between the line to Paisley Gilmour Street and to the Paisley Canal Line; whilst to the west a dive-under junction provided connections to the Dalry and North Johnstone Line and the Bridge of Weir Railway, via Kilmacolm, and the rest of the former GPK&AR.

Elderslie station closed on 14 February 1966, however it remained a junction until the closure of the Paisley Canal Line through to Kilmacolm in 1983. Following the Ayrshire Coast Line electrification in 1986, an Up Passenger Loop remains, and the line to the south west is signalled for bi-directional working.
