Old photograph of the railway station in Lenzie situated six miles from Glasgow, Scotland. The station was opened as Kirkintilloch Junction on 5 July 1848 by the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway, being renamed three times by the North British Railway, to Campsie Junction in December 1849, Lenzie Junction in November 1867 and finally Lenzie in June 1890. To the east of the station was a complex of junctions which allowed eastbound trains to travel to Kirkintilloch via the Campsie Branch of the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway, and to Garnqueen South Junction and Gartsherrie North Junction (both with the Caledonian Railway Main Line) to Coatbridge Sunnyside via the Monkland and Kirkintilloch Railway.
