Old Photograph Railway Station Largs Scotland

Old photograph of the railway station in Largs in Ayrshire, Scotland. The station was originally opened on 1 June 1885 by the Glasgow and South Western Railway, as the terminus of the extension of the former Ardrossan Railway to Largs. On 11 July 1995 an early morning Class 318 train from Glasgow Central failed to stop. It crashed through the buffers and the back of the ticket office, severely damaging parts of the station building, and demolished two shops before coming to a stop next to the taxi rank on Main Street. An eye-witness described the noise with the station shaking as the train " was ploughing through it like a set of dominoes ", then " the whole corner of the building disintegrating ". Although the driver, the guard and three others suffered injuries, there was considerable relief that no one was killed.
