Ardrossan Winton Pier Railway Station (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Ardrossan Winton Pier railway station was a railway station serving the town of Ardrossan and its harbour, North Ayrshire, Scotland. The station allowed train passengers to link with the Caledonian MacBrayne ferry sailings to Brodick on the Isle of Arran and other destinations. The station was opened on 27 July 1840 as part of the Ardrossan Railway and was known as Ardrossan Pier. Upon the grouping of the G&SWR into the London, Midland and Scottish Railway during the Grouping of 1923, the station was renamed Ardrossan Winton Pier on 2 June 1924 in order to distinguish between the Ardrossan Pier station on the former Lanarkshire and Ayrshire Railway.
