Leaving for the south, Kilmarnock station
A train for Carlisle has just left Kilmarnock, passing on the right the former bay platform, unused since at least 1982 and probably quite a few years before that.

Kilmarnock Viaduct
The railway line from Glasgow used to terminate at Kilmarnock but it was decided to extend the line. In 1848 the viaduct of 23 stone arches, a magnificent feat of Victorian engineering, was built, giving passengers a fine view over Kilmarnock as they travelled south. The viaduct is built in arches to give it strength to support heavy locomotives passing above. For many years there were shops situated under the arches
