This line runs through an area of farmland.
The line ran from Darvel to Loundonhill to Strathaven. The line was single track with loops at stations, the stations had island platforms. The Darvel to Loudonhill section was owned by the Glasgow and South Western Railway and the Loudonhill to Strathaven section owned by the Caledonian Railway.

The platform remains here, partly dug away, with an overbridge at the west end of the site.
The site of the station has been levelled and is now a grassy area between two fences.
The station site is used by a farmer to store equipment and silage. The platform has been removed. To the west of the station was the fine Loudonhill viaduct which was demolished in the 1980s.
