History

The station was opened as Mosspark West by the London Midland and Scottish Railway on 1 March 1934. There was however no Mosspark East. British Railways renamed the station Mosspark from 6 May 1974. On 10 January 1983, the station was closed to passengers, although the line was retained for freight services. The station reopened as part of the reinstatement of passenger services to Paisley Canal on 28 July 1990.

Currently the service pattern Mondays-Saturdays is:

  • 2tph to Glasgow Central
