Coatbridge Central [NB]

The current Coatbridge Central got its coveted suffix only in 1953: the previous Central station was the former North British one which closed two years earlier.  The line, between Sunnyside and Whifflet South Junctions, remains and a girder bridge carrying it is a local
landmark, although it is little-used.  It runs parallel here with the passenger line through the current Coatbridge Central.  All that remains of the NB station however is an underpass, seen here looking from Sunnyside Road on 5 February.
