  Cassillis railway station was a railway station serving the village of Minishant, South Ayrshire, Scotland. The station was originally part of the Ayr and Maybole Junction Railway (and later the Glasgow and South Western Railway).
  
  ## History
  
  The station opened on 13 October 1856, and closed 6 December 1954.
  
  The station was named after nearby Cassillis House, and consisted of two side platforms and a moderate sized station building. Since closure both platforms have been removed (and the line singled), however the station building remains intact as a private residence.
