Opened in 1993 by British Rail on the line from Glasgow to Whifflet, this station effectively replaced an earlier station called Langloan a few hundred metres behind the camera position. View west towards Bargeddie and Glasgow following electrification. For a pre-electrification view from the same spot some three years earlier, see NS7164 : Kirkwood railway station, Lanarkshire.
