Opened in 1849 by the Clydesdale Junction Railway, later part of the Caledonian Railway, on the line from Motherwell to Rutherglen and Glasgow, this station was replaced by the current one, believed to be in 1878. For many years, the 1849 station was used as a goods station but was subsequently demolished. No trace apparently remains. View east from Glasgow Road towards Motherwell, also Bellshill. The current station is behind the camera position.
