Cessnock subway station serves the eastern part of Ibrox and the Cessnock area. It is also the nearest station to Festival Park. Along with Kelvinhall, it is one of only two stations to retain its pre-modernisation surface buildings and entryway. It is also the only station to retain its pre-modernisation livery and signage.
It was opened in 1896 and modernised in 1977-1980. The station retains its original island platform configuration, and has no escalators.
There are 520,000 boardings per year at this station. [2].
The station is located close to the Glasgow Science Centre.
