Opened in 1900 as "Eglinton Street" by the Glasgow & South Western Railway on the lines south west from Glasgow St. Enoch's, this station replaced the one at Main Street which closed at the same time. It was renamed "Cumberland Street" in 1924 and closed in 1966. View south east at one of the former entrances, which was bricked up in 2012.
