:''For the station on the former Glasgow, Barrhead and Kilmarnock Joint Railway see Neilston Low railway station.'' Neilston railway station is a railway station in the village of Neilston, East Renfrewshire, Greater Glasgow, Scotland. The station is managed by Abellio ScotRail and lies on the Cathcart Circle Lines, 11¾ miles (18 km) south west of Glasgow Central station. == History == The station was originally opened as part of the Lanarkshire and Ayrshire Railway on 1 May 1903.〔 It closed between 1 January 1917 and 2 March 1919 due to wartime economy,〔 and upon the grouping of the L&AR into the London, Midland and Scottish Railway in 1923, the station was renamed Neilston High on 2 June 1924.〔 It was renamed back to Neilston on 6 May 1974 by British Rail.〔 The station is fully operational today as a terminal station on the Glasgow Central - Neilston line. The railway was electrified in 1962 and Class 303 "Blue Train" electric multiple units provided almost all trains services for many years thereafter, being joined by the similar Class 311 from 1967. Following withdrawal of the Class 303 and 311, Class 314 have been the mainstay of the service with occasional services operated by Class 318 and Class 334. The line previously continued southwest to Uplawmoor, but was closed and lifted in December 1964.〔Stansfield (1999), page 41〕 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「Neilston railway station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
