Two railway bridges once crossed the road here, one at the green boxes by the park, the other at the bus shelter. Both carried lines of the Lanarkshire & Dunbartonshire Railway which converged in what is now Thornwood Park before entering a tunnel which stood behind the trees. The Glasgow Story web site has a great photo of the bridges in use http://www.theglasgowstory.com/imageview.php?inum=TGSE01354 .
