Kirkland railway station

[1] The CVR was nominally independent, but was in reality controlled by the Glasgow and South Western Railway.

[2] The line was closed to passengers on 3 May 1943, during WW2[1] and to freight on 4 July 1949,[3] and the track lifted in 1953.

The station had a simple tin shelter and a short siding with a loading bank.

A station master's house was provided, designed by the company with a pyramid roof truncated by a central chimney stack.

The siding was worked by down trains only, goods for Dumfries being taken to the nearest station along.
