Bomb squad called to Lanarkshire rail station after 'WW2 explosive' discovered

Bomb disposal experts were called to a Lanarkshire railway station after a "small" explosive device - thought to be a World War 2 era grenade - was discovered in the area.

Cops and a specialist explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) team raced to Greenfaulds train station in Cumbernauld at around 3.30pm on Wednesday.

It is understood that the device, which was found in a grassy part beside the station serving the southern end of the town, was an unexploded WW2 bomb, the Daily Record reports.
