Dunlop
The camber at Dunlop station can make alighting a slightly queasy experience. The driver of a Carlisle to Glasgow 156 495 chats with workers building the new platform to serve the new long loop, or rather whopping 5-mile extension of the existing Lugton loop, which will extend south past Stewarton. The current long single section between Lugton and Kilmarnock limits frequency and some passenger trains are halted in the manually signalled Lugton loop. A half-hourly service is expected to start from the December 2009 timetable when work should be completed. Isolated stretches of the second track are already in place.
