Govan subway station

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Govan subway station is a station serving the area of Govan in Glasgow, Scotland. It is located on the south side of the River Clyde. Just to the south of the station is the main depot and test track for the Glasgow Subway. The station is located near the historic Govan Old Parish Church.

The station has two platforms. Prior to closure for modernisation in 1977 the station was called Govan Cross. The appearance of cracks in the roof of the old station (with a single "island platform" serving both tracks) led to the premature closure of the unmodernised railway in 1977.
