Notes
Passenger statistics from the Office of Rail and Road

It was built as part of the City of Glasgow Union Railway which provided a link across the Clyde (between the Glasgow and Paisley Joint Railway at Shields Junction and the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway at Sighthill Junction). The line opened to goods traffic in 1875, but the station here was not opened until 1 October 1883, when the passenger service was extended from Alexandra Parade.[2] Services through to Springburn were not introduced until 1887.

The Bellgrove to Springburn line was electrified by British Rail in 1960 as part of the North Clyde line scheme.[3]
