This is where the steam locamotive depot was based. It closed in 1953 and was located within the triangle of lines between the Ardrossan and Largs lines. The buildings were finally demolished in the early 1980s and the land lay bare. When the electrification came in the late 1980s part of the land was used as a halt and turn around.
