Scope and Content Locomotive at St Enoch Station, Glasgow This view from the south-south-east was taken on 25 September 1964 and shows the east end of the original station. The locomotive is a British Railways standard 4MT 2-6-0, designed for both passenger and freight services of medium weight. The bridge to the left is over Stockwell Street. St Enoch Station was built on an undercroft, used for many years as a beer store. It closed in 1966, and its train services were transferred to Central Station. After a period of use as a car park was demolished in the early 1970s. The site is now the St Enoch shopping centre. St Enoch Station was built in 1870-9 for the Glasgow & South Western Railway as a city centre terminus of its Anglo-Scottish services operated jointly with the Midland Railway. It was extended to the south in 1898-1902. A temporary terminus at Dunlop Street was opened in 1870. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
