Larkhall railway station serves the town of Larkhall, South Lanarkshire, Scotland. The station is the south-eastern terminus of the Argyle Line, 16+1⁄4 miles (26.2 km) south east of Glasgow Central railway station.

The station was originally opened as Larkhall Central on 1 July 1905 by the Caledonian Railway as part of their Mid Lanark Lines which filled in various gaps around Larkhall, Stonehouse, Strathaven and Blackwood. It closed to passengers on 4 October 1965.

Forty years after closure, the station was officially reopened on 9 December 2005 by Jack McConnell MSP, the then First Minister for Scotland. Passenger services started on 12 December 2005, with trains serving the Argyle Line.

From opening in December 2005, trains run every 30 minutes to Glasgow Central and beyond to Dalmuir. As of May 2016, they run to Milngavie instead, but southbound arrivals still originate from Dalmuir.^[2]

An hourly Sunday service started from December 2007 on a one-year trial basis. This trial has been successful, and the hourly Sunday service is now a permanent feature. It runs to Balloch via Clydebank.
