:''For the station on the former Lanarkshire and Ayrshire Railway see Uplawmoor (L&A) railway station.'' Uplawmoor railway station was a railway station near the village of Uplawmoor, East Renfrewshire, Scotland. The station was originally part of the Glasgow, Barrhead and Kilmarnock Joint Railway. ==History== The station opened on 27 March 1871 as Caldwell.〔Butt, page 51〕 The station spent most of its existence as this name, and was only renamed to Uplawmoor upon the closure of the station with the same name on the Lanarkshire and Ayrshire Railway on 2 April 1962.〔Butt, page 237〕 The station closed permanently on 7 November 1966.〔 The Neilston Curling Club members enjoyed concessions granted by the Glasgow, Barrhead and Kilmarnock Joint Railway Company for members and their curling stones to travel between Neilston and Caldwell stations and return for the cost of the single journey. A key for the clubhouse was also kept at the then Caldwell station.〔(Neilston CC ) Retrieved : 20-12-12〕 In 1966 the station was temporarily renamed 'Tannochbrae' for an episode of Dr. Finlay's Casebook.〔Wham, Page 22〕 Today the line is still open as part of the Glasgow South Western Line, with the original station building still standing as a private residence. Many local campaigns to re-open the station have come and gone without success. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Uplawmoor (GB&K) railway station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
