Gree Goods station
Gree Goods station or Gree Depot as it was listed in the Caledonian Railway Working Timetable was a relatively short lived railway freight facility located approximately one miles south of Lugton on the A736 Lochlibo Road, North Ayrshire, Scotland. Gree Goods served the industrial and agricultural requirements for transportation in the vicinity, with the village of Burnhouse not far away, sitting on the crossroads to Barrmill, Dunlop and Irvine. Over Gree, High Gree, Nether Gree, Gree and Brownhills Farms were located nearby. Gree Goods was close to the Lugton East Junction, just south of the recently demolished Gree Viaduct. The nearest passenger station on the line north was Lugton High and to the south was Giffen.
Although a rather location today the facility would have had freight transport business in the form of lime for the fields, cattle, horse and sheep movements, milk and cheese delivery, mining and quarrying related items, etc.〔Wham, Page 187〕
== Infrastructure ==
The OS maps of 1896 does not show the goods station or main line and it was not until 1910 that a fairly basic infrastructure is indicated with the double track main line and a single siding running off to branch twice, two sidings running to a loading dock and a single siding running past a second loading dock to a point near the road access off the A736. A signal box was not present and only a possible ground frame and a lone signal post at the siding are shown. A crane is shown.〔(1910 25 inch to the mile OS Map )〕 The site was located in a cutting which had been expanded to contain the two loading docks, etc.〔 By 1958 the tracks had all been lifted, including the main line.〔(old-maps )〕
