Part of the old Glasgow City Union Railway, it originally served the now-demolished St. Enoch station. The line itself is still open, but is only used by freight trains and departmental movements of rolling stock between depots.
The much touted Glasgow Crossrail scheme would bring it back into full-time use again, but the project has been repeatedly stalled and ignored by government, much to SPT and the City Council's annoyance.
