Summary

Description
English: Garliestown 2nd station (site), Dumfries & Galloway
Opened in 1876 by Directors of the Wigtown Railway on what later became the Portpatrick & Wigtownshire Joint Railway, this station was on a short branch line off the P&WJR branch line from Newton Stewart to Whithorn. It replaced NX4646 : Millisle railway station (site), Dumfries & Galloway but closed to regular passenger traffic as early as 1903 and to occasional excursions in 1935. View north west along the former platform. The only remainder is the short section of grey wall to the left of the white facilities block, which carried the platform edge. The platform was on a curve, which can still be identified looking towards the camper vans in the distance.
