Scope and Content Anderston Cross Station, 4-14 Stobcross Street, Glasgow (Glasgow City council area) This station was built for the Glasgow Central Railway, a Caledonian Railway subsidiary which ran underground from east to west through the city centre. The platforms here were underground. The surface building was designed by JJ Burnet, architect. This view shows the surface building from the south west, designed in Jacobean style. The station had closed in 1959, but the agent's house on the first floor was still inhabited. Anderston Cross itself is in the right background. The surface building was demolished in 1967, but the station was reopened in the late 1980s, as part of the electrified Argyle Line, with a modest surface building.
