Bridgeton

The current Bridgeton station (beyond the wall) is only half the
station it once was. It used to be a junction for the line to Carmyle - and eventually Coatbridge Central. The course of the sharp divergence at this point can be seen here in the foreground on 2 May 2011. Both lines and the station closed in 1964, but the line through the Rutherglen platforms reopened in 1979 with a station called plain Bridgeton.
