Glasgow Cross railway station

When the Argyle Line was opened, the station was not reopened. Today it is now a ghost station and at surface level the only evidence of its existence are ventilation grilles on the traffic island, between Trongate and London Road, whilst at track level there is a widening of the formation.

There have been rumours of the station being re-opened as an interchange with Glasgow Crossrail, which itself includes proposals for a new Glasgow Cross station located on the City Union bridge, tucked behind the Mercat Building.
