The station was opened on 27 March 1871 by the Glasgow, Barrhead and Kilmarnock Joint Railway. The station closed on 7 November 1966 as part of the Beeching cuts, however the closure was only brief as it reopened as an unstaffed halt on 8 June 1967 after vehement local opposition and national press coverage.
Track doubling between Lugton and Lochridge Junction just south of Stewarton, started in 2008, has resulted in a second platform, disabled access and a new car park being built.
Since 13 December 2009 the station has had a mainly half-hourly service each way to Glasgow and respectively, with some southbound trains continuing to either , and .
Monday to Saturday services consist of a 30-minute service to Glasgow (1 calling at Barrhead, then express thereafter, the other serving all stations) and to Kilmarnock (with some Carlisle trains and a limited service to Stranraer). On Sundays, an hourly service operates, with two trains continuing to Carlisle in the afternoon/evening.
In 2012, a ticket machine was installed on Platform 2, and from December 2012, Sunday trains only use Platform 1.
