Scope and Content Parkhead North Station, Glasgow This shows the north side of the station from the south-east, photographed from a moving train. The platform has been removed, but the east-bound platform building survives, and is the building in the centre in this view. To the left is the brick-built goods office. This station was for many years the only one in Parkhead. The Caledonian Railway opened one (on the Lanarkshire & Dumbartonshire Railway) on the southern edge of the suburb in the 1890s. After nationalisation in 1948 the North British station was renamed Parkhead North. This station was built on the North British Railway's Glasgow to Coatbridge line, which opened in 1871. There were both passenger and goods stations. The passenger station closed in the 1950s, but the goods station remained open until the early 1970s. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
