The Ardrossan Railway was a railway company in Scotland whose line, built in the mid nineteenth century, primarily carried passenger services between Kilwinning and Ardrossan along with freight services to and from collieries between Kilwinning and Perceton. The company's line was later merged into the Glasgow and South Western Railway, and today forms part of the Ayrshire Coast Line.
