Loch Skerrow Halt railway station served the burgh of Skerrow, Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland on the Portpatrick and Wigtownshire Joint Railway.
The station was opened as a public station on 13 June 1955 by British Railways. It had a siding and a signal box. The purpose of the station was to split the signalling section between and . With a sparse local population, there was little need for a station, so it closed to regular passengers on 9 September 1963.[1] [2] It remained an unadvertised station and was used occasionally until the line was closed in 1965.[3]
Richard Hannay, the hero of the 1915 novel The Thirty-Nine Steps, by John Buchan, reputedly got off a train here, fearing that he had become the prime suspect in a couple of murders in London.[3] [4]
