Anderston railway station serves Glasgow's Financial district of Anderston, and, across the M8, the housing schemes of Anderston West. It is a manned station with island platforms and most of it is underground. This was the terminus point for the Limited Stop service to Hamilton Central but these services now run between Dalmuir and Larkhall although they still call here. There is no Sunday service although the platforms are lit, etc, the station doesn't open.

The station was opened on 10 August 1896, closing on 3 August 1959. It was reopened as part of the Argyle Line project on 5 November 1979.
