Netherton Goods

Location type

Sidings

Name and dates

Netherton Goods (1903-1966)

Opened on the Lanarkshire and Ayrshire Railway.

Description

This goods yard was located between Neilston and Lyoncross Junction at a rural location.

The sidings were located on the south side of the line, accessed from the west.

Nearby were quarries but the main use was probably agricultural. Netherton Farm is to the north east.

Portions of the loading bank remain.

A pop up station may be provided nearby, just to the east, to serve the south of Barrhead and west of Newton Mearns.
