Drybridge railway station

Drybridge railway station was a railway station serving the village of Drybridge, North Ayrshire, Scotland.

The station was opened on 6 July 1812 by the Kilmarnock and Troon Railway.

[1] The Glasgow, Paisley, Kilmarnock and Ayr Railway took over management of the station on 16 July 1846,[2] while its successor, the Glasgow and South Western Railway, took over full ownership in 1899.

The village of 'Drybridge' is so named after the fact that most bridges up until the era of the railways were built over watercourses and were therefore 'wet bridges'; a name applied to the nearby Laigh Milton Viaduct.

Visible from the station is the only surviving standing stone on the mainland in North Ayrshire.
