Helensburgh Central railway station serves the town of Helensburgh on north shore of the Firth of Clyde, near to Glasgow, Scotland. The station is a terminus on the North Clyde Line, 38 km (24 miles) north west of Glasgow Queen Street railway station. Passenger services are operated by First ScotRail on behalf of Strathclyde Partnership for Transport.
The station is Helensburgh's main railway station (the other being the much smaller Helensburgh Upper on the West Highland Line). The station was opened in 1858 and is located in the centre of the town.
Visitors to Helensburgh's historic Hill House (built by Charles Rennie Mackintosh and preserved by the National Trust for Scotland) may find Helensburgh Upper station more convenient as it avoids the uphill walk from Helensburgh Central.
