This train station has certainly saved my bacon a few times. All of these occasions have been work related, hence it's been appreciated that little bit extra.
The train station is really handy for Pollok Country Park, House and the Burrell Collection, which are all definitely worth a visit. Thus, this is - for many people anyway - the quickest and simplest way in which to travel to these tourist attractions.
Apart from the above attractions, the sights are somewhat limited. However, a trip to the 1901 bar and restaurant is easily within walking distance and will certainly improve any visit here.
Likewise, you can enjoy a short stroll along Pollokshaws Road into the heart of Shawlands with all it's bustle and hustle.
So, all in all this is a useful train station, for certain purposes, that provides a relatively good service of four trains an hour into the City Centre at a reasonable price. read more
