Coatbridge Sunnyside railway station Coatbridge Sunnyside railway station Coatbridge Sunnyside railway station serves the town of Coatbridge in North Lanarkshire, Scotland. The railway station is managed by Abellio ScotRail and is located on the North Clyde Line, east of Glasgow Queen Street. It was opened by the North British Railway in February 1871, as the terminus of their "Coatbridge Branch" from Glasgow and was linked from the outset to both the Monkland and Kirkintilloch Railway lines to and Gartsherrie Junction and also the Bathgate and Coatbridge Railway line to , Bathgate and Edinburgh Waverley. All of these other than the northern portion of the
Edinburgh Waverley railway station runs parallel to the railway to the immediate south. A need to increase capacity for through and west-end traffic led to three new platforms being built in 2006, on land formerly occupied by disused sidings and bypass lines within the main part of the station. Platform 10 is a through platform at the west end, facing Platform 11. Platforms 1 and 20 are a single long through platform facing Platforms 2 and 19. All are linked by the upgraded north-south overhead walkway linking the Waverley Steps (escalators) to Market Street. In December 2006, a partial renumbering of platforms took place
