Glasgow Central is the best major train station in Scotland and maybe only second to St Pancras in the UK unless anyone can direct me to a better looking one? I love architecture. I was in Motherwell train station last week and it was so lovely I didn't ever want my train to come. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuctifano Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 On 11/14/2017 at 10:55, KnightswoodBear said: Great photo, is there a date on this? The Crathie Court flats in the top left of the pic were Glasgow's first high rises to be built (1952) and are still standing long after many others have been demolished. Also being deceived by the height of the photo, makes Thornwood & Partick look totally flat. You can see my house from here etc. I have a vague memory of the granary mid-demolition containing some humourous graffiti "from" the 1960s about football but I think it was probably added by demolition workers at the time as it was so visible on what would have been an interior wall. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milton75 Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Loving the station pics. Slightly ashamed to admit that I was semi-addicted to that railway journey programme Portillo did. He also had knob in hand when gushing about Central Station. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got stuck at Perth for 30 mins once, The Perth-Dundee-Aberdeen side is usual crap, but if you wander round and go into where the Perth-Inverness lines are the architecture is beautiful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJ2 Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 After seeing the photo of that school in Dundeh, thought I’d show these hogwarts boys what a real school looks like. Divit high. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
