This junction ran from a loop on the North Monkland Railway. The Broadrigg colliery line ran north west from the junction, access was from the east. This split running to both Broadrigg Colliery Pit No 3 and Broadrigg Colliery Pit No 6. Once on the branch from the junction a reversal gave access to Broadrigg Colliery Pit No 4 and Broadrigg Engine Shed.
The collieries and lines were closed by 1910, although the loop on the North Monkland Railway survived.
