Botanic Gardens Station, Glasgow, Apr. 2008

[BenCooper]

The platforms of the old Botanic Gardens Station in Glasgow are a local Urbex tradition - originally the station had a beautiful above-ground ticket office, but this was destroyed by fire, and now all that remains is the tunnel itself and the platforms.

Going into the tunnel, there's some fun graffiti - not so funny when you're on your own in the dark, though.

The tunnel itself in in excellent condition.

And it's a fun place to play :)

On the platforms, the remains of wooden stairs lead upwards - blocked at the top.

Plus lots more graffiti.
