Scope and Content St Enoch Station (St Enoch Square), Glasgow St Enoch was Glasgow's first large city-centre railway station, built for the Glasgow and South Western Railway. A temporary terminus at Dunlop Street was opened in 1870. The St Enoch Station was completed in 1876, and its integral hotel in 1879. The station was extended to the south in 1898-1902. This shows the interior of the 1898-1902 train shed, designed by William Melville, engineer to the Glasgow and South Western Railway, looking west towards the buffer stops After the station closed in 1966 it was, as can be seen, converted into a car park. This station was built partly because the Glasgow and South Western formed a partnership with the Midland Railway to run Anglo-Scottish services via the Midland's Settle and Carlisle line. These services ended in the mid 1960s. St Enoch was demolished in the early 1970s and replaced by a shopping centre. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
