== RNAS Almondbank == With the building of Royal Naval Aircraft Workshops, Almondbank grew significantly during and after the Second World War. The establishment of Royal Naval Aircraft Workshops commenced in 1940. The station, a stone frigate, was employed as a RNAS Aircraft Repair Yard and Stores Depot. The workshops had their own small railway branch line which was linked to the now-closed Almondbank railway station.
