History

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