Summary

Description
English: Junctions south of Barassie, 1998.
View southward from the bridge at Barassie station (behind the camera): ex-GSWR Glasgow - Ayr - Stranraer main line. The main line is curving right through its station at Troon, while straight ahead is the remnant of the former Kilmarnock & Troon Railway line to its own Troon terminus: this closed to passengers back in May 1892 when the G&SW built a new station on the Troon Loop to Lochgreen Junction. The loop remained open through Troon Goods (closed 6/7/64) until 18/4/66: as seen here in 1998, a considerable stretch of track remained in use after that, including to a depot used during the electrification of the main line in the 1980s. The hills on the horizon range from Enoch Hill (1,865 ft.), Kilmein Hill (1,406 ft.) and Keirs Hill (1,003 ft.) around Dalmellington and on the far right behind Heads of Ayr Carrick Hill (940 ft.).
