I RECENTLY mentioned the Princes Pier to Glasgow railway line and today’s photograph shows where it went under Mount Pleasant Street, with Wellington Street on the right.
The picture was taken a couple of years before the final passenger service from Princes Pier to Glasgow via Kilmacolm in 1959.
The line was later made single track and connected to the Wemyss Bay to Glasgow line for the carriage of containers. The last container train ran in 1984.
