Old Photograph Railway Station Pollokshaws Scotland
Old photograph of the Railway Station in Pollokshaws, Glasgow, Scotland. The station was opened as Pollokshaws on 27 September 1848 by Glasgow, Barrhead and Neilston Direct Railway, which later became the Glasgow, Barrhead and Kilmarnock Joint Railway, a joint railway company between the Caledonian Railway and the Glasgow and South Western Railway. To the south west is Busby Junction where the Busby Railway, latterly part of the Caledonian Railway, diverges. Following grouping, the station became part of the London Midland and Scottish Railway. It was not until British Railways days, 5 May 1952, that the station was renamed as Pollokshaws West.
