Background
History
The station opened on 15 March 1858 by the North British Railway. It was rebuilt in 1890 and opened as Mawcarse Junction when the Glenfarg Line opened. The signal box opened around this time and was to the west of the station. To the north was the goods yard which had a saw mill siding. The station's name was changed back to Mawcarse in 1962. It closed on 15 June 1964.
