Parking at Kelvinside Railway Station
Kelvinside railway station was located on Great Western Road beside the current Gartnavel General Hospital in Glasgow (Wikipedia). The historic station location is given as Great Western Road, rather than a current station entrance with a station-operated car park (Wikipedia).
Drivers approaching the address at 1051 Great Western Road should therefore plan around nearby private parking or another transport interchange instead of assuming that a railway-station car park is available. ScotRail says normal charges at stations with parking can be £24 per day or £12 for up to 12 hours, while rail users may find free parking at some locations (ScotRail), but those figures do not describe a car park at this site.
