Old Photograph Montgomerie Pier Railway Station Ardrossan Scotland

Old photograph of Montgomerie Pier Railway Station in Ardrossan located in North Ayrshire, Scotland. The station was opened on 30 May 1890 as Ardrossan Pier. It was closed from 1 January 1917 to 1 February 1919 due to wartime economy. The station was renamed Ardrossan Montgomerie Pier on 2 June 1924. The name change was to avoid confusion with a nearby station of the same name. The station then passed on to the Scottish Region of British Railways on nationalisation in 1948, and continued to operate until it officially closed to passengers by the British Railways Board on 6 May 1968.
