:''For other Glasgow stations with similar names see Pollokshields East and Pollokshields West. Pollokshields railway station was a railway station in Pollokshields, a district of Glasgow, Scotland. The station was originally part of the Glasgow and Paisley Joint Railway. ==History== Sources published in the late 20th century claim that Pollokshields station opened on 14 July 1840.〔Butt (1995), page 187〕 Contemporary 19th century sources would suggest however that both Pollokshields station and Shields Road station were created as part of the general reorganisation of rail links between Paisley and Glasgow in the 1870s, in preparation for the opening of St Enoch station and Glasgow Central station. The adjacent Shields station was developed around the time that the Paisley Canal Line opened in 1885. Pollokshields station amalgamated with Shields Road station and Shields station on 1 April 1925,〔 creating a larger Shields Road station. This combined station was located within the complex of lines forming Shields Junction. In 2007, part of the platforms where the City of Glasgow Union Railway and the Glasgow and Paisley Joint Railway crossed over the former General Terminus and Glasgow Harbour Railway are still visible. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pollokshields railway station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
