Last year, I visited Breich Station - on the Glasgow to Edinburgh line, with 2 trains each way per hour passing and one train each way per day calling. As might be expected, passenger number are low. I was not the only one who visited - other did too. Here are my 2 reports and one other

Breich was under threat of closure (reasons in reports above) but it was actually - against how I would have bet - reprieved and has been rebuilt.  My report (above) looks around at the traffic offered and that could be offered and handles, and this could well be a station who's time will come good in the next decade.   Here are some new pictures - scarcely recognisable and ready for the passenger.   Let's hope the other jigsaw pieces to bring people to the station and provide trains for them to catch are also provided.

We have a GWR station which is in as low a place as Breich was;   it's not got the huge benefit of a main road as Breich has, but in its rebuild, a move of 400 metres along the rail would more it a kilometre as the road drives, and onto a classified road where it could follow Breich to a modern facility, and with trains provided it could once again blossom.   Far too much to write here of what is an excellent case - but Breich can be a light to follow.
