Killochan railway station was located in a rural part of South Ayrshire, Scotland and mainly served the nearby Killochan Castle estate.[3] The Killochan bank is the name given to this section of the line, running from Girvan on an uphill gradient to just north of the old station site.[4] Maybole is around nine miles away and Girvan two miles.
