Opened in 1896 as "Kilbowie Road" by the Lanarkshire and Dumbartonshire Railway, part of the Caledonian Railway, on the line from Partick to Dumbarton. The name was shortened to "Kilbowie" in 1908. The station closed in 1964. View west towards Dalmuir Riverside and Dumbarton. All trace of the railway and station, which would have been on a viaduct overhead at this point, has been swept away.
