The stunning architecture of Wemyss Bay Railway Station features in the World Cup of Stations this week as the public vote on their favourite in the UK.

Built in 1903, the architectural railway gem even captured the eye of TV train buff Michael Portillo on one of his popular BBC shows recently.

Stations across the country are getting ready to battle it out for a place in the final in a bid to be crowned the UK’s best loved station and winner of World Cup of Stations 2023, in the competition hosted by the Rail Delivery Group in partnership with the Community Rail Network. 

This year’s competition takes place during Community Rail Week (May 22-26) to shine a spotlight on the work of dedicated volunteers that support our stations through Community Rail, and celebrating the benefits the railway brings to residents, the environment and the local economy.  

More than 100 nominations from across Great Britain were whittled down to 48 by TV presenter and historian Tim Dunn to feature in the competition, and Wemyss Bay has now reached the big final three.
