	St Enoch Station, Glasgow - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		St Enoch Station was a former mainline railway station in the city of Glasgow, Scotland.
		Located on St Enoch Square in the city centre, it was opened by the Glasgow and South Western Railway in the 1870s, before being taken over and then operated by the London Midland and Scottish Railway.
		The station was closed in 1966 as part of the rationalisation of the public rail system undertaken by Dr Richard Beeching.

	Central Station, Glasgow - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Glasgow Underground operates from St Enoch, about 5 minutes' walk away to the south east, or Buchanan Street station 5 minutes' walk to the north.
		Glasgow Central Station is the largest of the two mainline railway stations in Glasgow, Scotland.
		The station's most famous architectural feature is the large glass walled bridge that takes the station building over Argyle Street, which is nicknamed by locals as "Heilanman's Umbrella", which stems from the local urban myth that thrifty Highlanders would rather stand under the bridge than buy an umbrella and venture out into the rain.

	Glasgow - Wikitravel
		Glasgow is the largest city in Scotland, with a population of about 620,000 in the city itself, or over 1.8 million if the surrounding towns of the Clydeside conurbation are taken into account.
		Most of Glasgow is built in the salmon colored sandstone that is the trademark of the city and which positively glows on a bright day; none of Edinburgh 's dour granite here.
		Glasgow is positioning itself as an upmarket retail destination, the shopping is alleged to be better than in Edinburgh, this means that there's an increasing number of designer clothes shops in areas like the Merchant City.

	Definition of Glasgow

		Glasgow's central metropolitan area is considerably larger than that of Manchester, but the Northern English city also lays claim to the title on the basis of having a larger urbanised area.
		Glasgow became one of the richest cities in the world and parks, museums and libraries were all set up during this period.

	Glasgow Photo Library - St Enoch Square
		In Glasgow's early days, the road running east from Glasgow Cross was named St Enoch's Gate and led to a chapel dedicated to St Enoch, the mother of St Mungo, the patron saint of the city.
		The chapel was demolished during the reformation but as Glasgow expanded, a large square was created and named after St Enoch, with another church in its centre (also now demolished).
		The underground (subway) station which now stands in the centre of the square, with its red stonework and turrets, could easily pass for a miniature Jacobean castle which had escaped from the Highlands.
