Shows how short sighted they were as today there is growing demand for extending Central as it is too overcrowded and at max capacity so much so the sub lines are now complaining they are at max capacity with the overflow from Central traffic although someone had a bit of foresight in not demolishing St Enoch's viaduct piers...

An absolute disgrace that we have to scavenge and hunt for footage of Glasgow pre - 1980's.

This video is gold

ARCHITECTURAL VANDALISM 💥💥💥 sasanachs ☠️ …

Great music.

Isnt it sad that such a beautiful structure as St Enoch's was ripped down and replaced by the present horrendous building with no character

I remember the station well. Travelled to and from here to Callander.

Poor quality loud music no commentary

Remember it well... Next READ THE REAL GORBALS STORY 👍

The St. Enoch footage is atmospheric and dark.It's moody too. The quality is a bit naff, but we're dealing with another wise well shot historical document that reflects the times. I've never seen the Buchanan St. Sta.area at all. I know the bus station is on the site, but it would be so hard to place the layout and environs now as everything has changed..

MrPoupard Buchanan Street rail station was right at the top of Buchanan Street. At the junction of Cowcaddens and Port Dundas Road. Roughly where the Caledonian University is now.

Shame we always destroy beautiful buildings

Such a shame about the loss of S Enoch station. I'm 60 and had no idea there was a railway station at Buchanan St but there's the proof on film. However I'm struggling to get orientated. What is the junction at 7.20? Where exactly in Buchanan St was it located?

This ain't Vienna, Austria. Fix the music. Try this: ruclips.net/video/BDXIYFDlC38/видео.html

If they really wanted to integrate transport, they could build a new station at St Enoch's. Modern DMUs could come in from the north and east, discharge passengers, load up and then go south and west. It could handle all main line services. Central could be used for local trips with spare ground sold off. Go on! I dare you! (It was a great station.)

brilliant loved it

my first old station i have found is St enoch station

The St . Enoch station 1st WW memorial for Glasgow & South Western Railway workers killed in action was relocated to Ayr railway station. It's still there, well looked after but at risk because of crumbling Ayr Station Hotel. Needs another rescue.

l think the music is from the movie, moon, director I think was David bowies son

The original plan was to close Queen Street Station and keep Buchannan St station and open out the tunnel to give more room at Buchannan Street Station. But Ho Hum it did not happen at we were left with a very draughty Queen Street Station

The song your looking for is played by Clint mansell and the music title is welcome to lunar industries taken from the album moon hope that helps @jimbomak

Fantastic clip!

How Scotland should be set free from stupid British governments and political parties who were responsible for this crime. The honest Glaswegians who wanted to save St Enochs were right in every way. How these London criminals tore the heart out of a city.

Great footage & music, Cheers x

pulling up beattock , the guard needs a shite but theres no bogs till glasgow , much later tonight in time honoured fashion he empties his arsehole into brown paper to make a guards parcel

Excellent.

I JUST remember St. Enochs, but not Buchanan Street. What a shame - no doubt part of that idiot Beeching and the a government of the times that - like most governments - had no vision - and now it's too late. Good film, quality could have been better, but it showed enough.

Yes, if the hotel had been saved it could have been stone-cleaned and it would now be a great entrance for the St Enoch Centre.

Glaswegians protested for years to keep the roof of St Enochs train station. I think they only saved the clock, which was used in Gregory's Girl at Cumbernauld shopping centre.

Such a shame the film quality is so bad.

Interesting video, never knew there was a station there . What's the music?
