More about this scene
Thus Glasgow ended up with four railway termini but not a single through line, and to this day passengers have to walk or take a shuttle bus between Central and Queen Street. Buchanan Street Station was the poor relation of the termini, little more than a large wooden shed painted red-brown. It was demolished in 1966, and lines to the north thereafter operated out of Queen Street; its site is now occupied by the Royal Concert Hall. St Enoch Station was another victim of rationalisation and retrenchment, and its lines were transferred to Central. The grand edifice was gutted and used as a car-park before its demolition in 1977 to make way for the St Enoch Centre constructed in 1981-89, a vast shopping complex which looks more like a railway station than the building it replaced.
