Railway station in North Lanarkshire, Scotland

Coatdyke railway station entrance

Coatdyke railway station is situated on Quarry Street/Riddell Street in the Cliftonville area of the town of Coatbridge[1] and 10 miles (16 km) east of Glasgow Queen Street. It is the closest railway station to Coatbridge College and Monklands Hospital.

The station was opened as part of the Bathgate and Coatbridge Railway on 1 February 1871.[2]
The station now has no structures other than simple shelters. The ticket hall that was built when the Airdrie-Helensburgh line was electrified in 1960 was demolished in the early 1990s. Similar structures, built in the same style, still survive at Easterhouse and Airdrie stations.

Monday to Saturday daytimes:[3]

  • Half-hourly service towards Edinburgh Waverley
  • Half-hourly service towards Airdrie
  • Half-hourly service towards Balloch via Glasgow Queen Street Low Level
  • Half-hourly service towards Helensburgh Central via Glasgow Queen Street Low Level (as of 2019 this service does not always call at Shettleston, Cartyne and Easterhouse. Passengers for these stations use the half-hourly service towards Balloch instead.)

Evening services are as follows:

  • Half-hourly service towards Airdrie
  • Half-hourly service towards Balloch via Glasgow Queen Street Low Level

Sunday services are as follows:

  • Half-hourly service towards Edinburgh Waverley
