Old photograph of Steam Trains leaving Glasgow, Scotland. The Glasgow and South Western Railway was formed in 1850 as a result of the amalgamation of Glasgow, Paisley Kilmarnock and Ayr and Glasgow, Dumfries and Carlisle Railways. It served the South Clyde Coast routes and South to Ayrshire, Dumfries, Carlisle and Stranraer. It also ran service to St. Pancras, London, England, in conjunction with the Midland Railway via the Settle and Carlisle line. The HQ was at St Enoch station in Glasgow. Blog post of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
