  Back O'Loch Halt railway station on the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway built Campsie Branch served part of Kirkintilloch in Scotland.
  
  ## History
  
  Opened by the London and North Eastern Railway to counter growing road competition, the timber built station passed to the Scottish Region of British Railways on nationalisation in 1948, and was then closed by the British Railways Board on 7 September 1964.

  ## The site today
  
  The station site was still visible but all traces have been removed as a result of the construction of the Kirkintilloch link road which opened in late 2010. At this section the link road follows the route of the Campsie Branch and utilises much of the original cuttings and embankments.
