Annan is a railway station on the Glasgow South Western Line, which runs between Carlisle and Glasgow Central via Kilmarnock. The station, situated 17 miles 51 chains (28 km) north-west of Carlisle, serves the town of Annan in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland. It is owned by Network Rail and managed by ScotRail.
Shortly after leaving the station, heading west towards Dumfries, the line crosses a viaduct over the River Annan and adjoining flood plains. Also, situated just to the west of the station, is a disused junction and former alignment of a line which used to head south to the Cochran's Boiler Plant at Newbie.
History
Opened by the Glasgow, Dumfries and Carlisle Railway in 1848, then run by the Glasgow and South Western Railway, it became part of the London, Midland and Scottish Railway during the Grouping of 1923. The station then passed on to the Scottish Region of British Railways on nationalisation in 1948.
In 1975, the station became the western end of a single line section to Gretna Green, as part of the route rationalisation carried out by British Rail, following the electrification of the West Coast Main Line and re-signalling scheme, with control shared between the power box at Carlisle and the signal box at the station.
However, the second track was reinstated by Network Rail in 2008, to assist in managing the increased traffic levels, mainly consisting of train loads of imported coal from Hunterston Terminal to power stations in the East Midlands and West Yorkshire.
When sectorisation was introduced in the 1980s, the station was served by ScotRail until the privatisation of British Rail. Until the early 1980s, the goods yard at the station was still in regular use. The station was also used to dispatch fresh fish to London until the mid–to–late 1980s.
Former stations

=The town was previously served by a second railway station, Annan Shawhill, which was opened by the Solway Junction Railway on 8 August 1870. It closed to passengers on 27 April 1931, and to goods traffic in 1955. It was situated on the long-disused Solway Junction Railway, which ran between Kirtlebridge and Maryport, operating across the Solway Firth.
= Newbie Junction Halt
=Newbie Junction Halt was located to the west of the Annan Viaduct, and briefly (between 1898–1904) served a nearby boiler factory, as well as a brick and tile works. Trains called in the mornings and evenings, for workers only.
