Singer Station, Clydebank

Singer Station, Clydebank
Constructed in 1907, Singer station took its name from the huge Singer sewing machine factory that it was built to serve. The station is located on a section of track that was realigned to make space for the factory. In addition to this station (still in use today), the original station, which was titled Singer Works, and previously called Kilbowie Road (Old), once boasted six bay platforms for the many workers' trains that ran there. Regular works trains ended in 1963 and the bay platforms, and indeed the factory, have long since gone. Quoted from Wikipedia

Yes, I have been using this station for decades, Rosa. When I was young I used to go to matches at the football ground in Clydebank. I know you will be horrified to hear that they knocked it down and built an Aldi supermarket on the site. Thanks for your very kind comment. Cheers, Joe
