Kilpatrick Railway Station
Facilities
The station is a split, two-platform station with ramp access. There are shelters and help points on both platforms, with a set of bike racks on one side. As there are no facilities to purchase tickets, passengers must buy one in advance, or from the guard on the train.
A woman was killed in an apparent suicide here, being struck by a train in October 2011 at the station.
