Glasgow St Enoch, underexposed - a photo on Flickriver

            This is the first of a pair of photographs, shot in 1974, showing former railway stations converted for use as car parks.  It goes without saying that I wish this picture had been correctly exposed, so that we could see the full splendour of Glasgow St Enoch's twin curved canopies, but it's the only memento I've got of the brief visit I made to the former terminus of the Glasgow & South Western Railway.  This is the best I can do; most likely the camera had been set to the wrong film speed.  Whilst it's a failure, one thing is certain: I can't go back and take it again.  The station closed for rail traffic in 1966 and was demolished in 1977.  Photo taken sometime in July 1974.
