Holywood railway station was a railway station in Dumfries and Galloway north of Dumfries.

History The station opened on 15 October 1849 as Killylung. Within a year, on 28 October 1850, it was renamed as Holywood. The station had 2 platforms, originally to the north of the level crossing but later moved to the south of it in order for a loop to be created to the east.

The station is now closed, although the line through the station is still open. One platform still exists and a level crossing controlled by a signal box. The small village of Holywood with its church stands a little way off and the old creamery stands close by to the station site.
