An excavator and a dump truck were both busy on the trackbed between the old platforms at Botanic Gardens on 18th December 2021. I would like to think they were preparing for the Glasgow Metro or the new link to Central Low Level but I think it more likely it was clearing debris after Storm Barra. All they have left behind is tyre tracks!

Botanic Gardens station on 9 July 2006. Although this station has been shut for nearly 70 years it is remarkable how well preserved it looks today!
