Opened in 1896 by the Glasgow Central Railway on the line from Newton to Maryhill and Dawsholm, this station closed in 1939. The line through the station closed in 1964. View north towards Maryhill and Dawsholm - the line split just north of this station. Most of the site has been covered by new housing but the southern tips of the platforms were still visible when this image was taken.
