Today, it’s managed by ScotRail and sits on the Glasgow South Western Line, providing regular services into Glasgow Central and towards places like Kilmarnock and East Kilbride.

I could admire the architecture but not take the train.

Pollokshaws West is the obvious choice of train station when going to Pollok Country Park, either to go to the Burrell Collection, admire the Highland cows or just to spend some time in nature. Unfortunately, this station is not an option if you require step-free access like me. I liked the look of the historic brick building and the details on the bannisters on the inside, but there are better places to do some sightseeing and so that aspect is more of a bonus on your journey and not the point of visiting.
