Argyle Street Railway Station
Argyle Street railway station is a very busy station on the Argyle Line, which is below street level. It has a narrow and often crowded island platform. The reason for this is that it is in the middle of a large shopping area. It serves the Argyle Street shopping precinct as well as the St Enoch Centre.
The station opened in 1979 and features an island platform. Curiously, one must first descend an escalator and then ascend another to reach the island platform.
