How abandoned railway station in Glasgow's Botanic Gardens refuses to be forgotten

How abandoned railway station in Glasgow's Botanic Gardens refuses to be forgotten
It opened in 1896 as part of the Glasgow Central Railway line. But as passengers gravitated toward cleaner, more convenient street trams, the station closed in 1939. It found new life as a cafe called The Silver Slipper and later the Sgt. Pepper’s night club – until a fire gutted it in 1970.
