The repeating patterns of the trusses of roof over Central Station in Glasgow. Built in the late 1800s and early 1900s, it's one of the largest glass roofs in the world.

Granite supports of the Central Station Bridge carrying railway lines over the Clyde in Glasgow. It was constructed by Arrol and Co. between 1899 and 1905.

Time for an unashanedly geeky post. This is the iconic metal and glass roof of Central Station in Glasgow. Built in 1879 (and later extended), the steelwork was created by Motherwell Bridge and Engineering Company.

Lights under the 1899 Central Station bridge where it crosses Clyde Place on the southern bank of the Clyde in Glasgow. The bridge was designed by Arrol and Co, and conaists of metal spans supported on granite piers.

I did enjoy working on these units for the time that TPE operated them. I remember babysitting this one ECS from Glasgow Central to Ardwick for maintenance attention. A problem free run as it turned out. 😮💨#Class350 #Desiro #Siemens #TransPennineExpress #GlasgowCentral

The neighbouring Central Station, a key element of Victorian Glasgow and an important hub for modern communters, is closed, but is hopefully unharmed

The distinctive orange and black of the Strathclyde Passenger Transport Executive. It has adorned many units over the years, and the class 303 was no exception.

The Caledonian Railway monogram carved above the Union Street exit to Glasgow's Central Station. This is a reminder that it was Caledonian Railway that built this station, and which first opened in 1879.

I'm in no way an expert, but the thin silver lines just visible in this photo of the corner glass panes in the roof of Central Station in Glasgow look like thermal stress fractures.

The corner of Gordon Street and Union Street in Glasgow. This block is now dominated by Central Station, which opened in 1879, but the building in the middle dates from 1851, when it was known as Union Corner

Smoke still billows from the burned out remains and drifts across the centre of Glasgow. This is not a good scene to wake up to, but at least no one in the building or any firefighters were hurt.
