Glasgow video reveals remains of forgotten station at the top of Buchanan Street

For well over a century it was one of Glasgow's busiest transport hubs, yet physical evidence of Buchanan Street Railway Station has all but vanished.

Luckily, one local vlogger has provided a helpful guide, revealing the station's few visible remains. As part of their Astonishing Glasgow series, YouTuber BT Justice has detailed the tell-tale signs that a major railway terminus once stood at the top of Buchanan Street.

Demolished as part of the cost-cutting Beeching plan in the 1960s, Buchanan Street Railway Station was one of four passenger termini that operated in Glasgow city centre during much of the 20th century, the other three being the still extant Glasgow Central, Glasgow Queen Street, and the St Enoch Railway Station, which was demolished in the 1970s.
