Lenzie railway station

Lenzie railway station is a railway station serving Lenzie and Kirkintilloch in East Dunbartonshire, Scotland. It is located on the Croy Line, 6+1/4 mi northeast of Glasgow Queen Street. Trains on the Glasgow to Edinburgh via Falkirk Line pass Lenzie by. The station is served by ScotRail.

History
The station was opened as Kirkintilloch Junction on 5 July 1848 by the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway, being renamed three times by the North British Railway, to Campsie Junction in December 1849, Lenzie Junction in November 1867 and finally Lenzie in June 1890.

To the east of the station was a complex of junctions which allowed eastbound trains to travel to Kirkintilloch via the Campsie Branch of the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway, and to Garnqueen South Junction and Gartsherrie North Junction (both with the Caledonian Railway Main Line) to Coatbridge Sunnyside via the Monkland and Kirkintilloch Railway.

Services
Monday to Saturdays, there is a half-hourly service southbound to Glasgow and northbound to Dunblane or Alloa (hourly to each).

In addition to the off peak services, there are a few morning services to Edinburgh via Falkirk High and a limited evening service to Falkirk Grahamston. The latter was formerly served from here throughout the day, but the Glasgow to Falkirk Grahamston service was re-routed to run via Cumbernauld in the mid 1990s to free up paths on the main line. Also, there is a once a day (Monday - Friday) service from Glasgow - Markinch in the evening.

On Sundays, there is an hourly service in each direction to Glasgow and Alloa with the first eastbound service of the day going to Aberdeen via Stirling, Perth, Dundee and Arbroath.
