Shields Road railway station was a railway station in Pollokshields, Glasgow, Scotland. ==History== The station was built by the City of Glasgow Union Railway on the original 1840 line from Paisley to Glasgow. It opened in the early 1870s,〔Smith, W.A.C. and Anderson, P. (1993)〕 around the time when the line was being diverted from Bridge Street to the new St Enoch station in the city centre, initially terminating at . Contemporary maps show that there were no stations at Shields Junction, prior to the general reorganisation of rail links between Paisley and Glasgow in the 1870s, in preparation for the opening of the new city centre terminals. From 1885, however, after Shields station opened, there were three adjacent stations at this site, each with their own booking offices fronting Shields Road. Shields Road station was the largest of the three, sharing one of its platforms with Pollokshields station, which had been squeezed into the northern part of the complex, on the new track which had been laid to establish a link between Paisley and the Caledonian Railway’s proposed Glasgow Central station. The three stations at Shields Junction were amalgamated in 1925,〔 creating a larger Shields Road station, which was in use until 1966, when train services to St Enoch ended. 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「Shields Road railway station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
