London Road at Bridgeton Cross, Dalmarnock Road is the junction on the
right at the white car.
Bridgeton Cross Station
This company was originally run by the Caledonian Railway Company until
the early 1920s when it became the
London and Midland Scottish Railways (LMS). The original station was a
victim of the dreaded 'Beechings' Campaign, and was closed in the early
sixties, but with the inauguration of Clyde Rail in 1979, the line was re
opened and a refurbished station (now just known as
Bridgeton) was opened. It serves trains from Motherwell,
Hamilton Circle and Dalmuir lines.
Bridgeton Central was a terminus but with the opening of the
new Argyle line, the new Bridgeton Cross station was re-opened, Nov.1979, and trains were
now able to go through Bridgeton to Rutherglen, Cambuslang, Motherwell,
Coatbridge and indeed all the way to Lanark
