Inverkip railway station is a railway station serving the village of Inverkip, Inverclyde, Scotland. The station is managed by First ScotRail and is on the Inverclyde Line, 46 km (28¾ miles) west of Glasgow Central.
The embankment is all that remains of the former Down platform. All of the station buildings have now been removed and replaced with a bus shelter. The flats in the background (known as The Kyles) are built in what was the station goods yard.

This was once a fairly grand station with two platforms, substantial buildings and a goods yard. It is now reduced to one platform with bus shelter. Dunrod Hill is visible in the distance, beyond the trees.
