yeah been there a few times and actually spoke to the guys in there .....

used to be part of the old overhead railway system and was actually one of the stations

the guys in there used to be well into there rallying in the 80-90s but sadly no longer
although it is still a car workshop
and ftw its called roscoe engineering !!!

There has to be a way in , because i dont think it is open to public , so you would have to tresspass to explore , shame because there is some old vans and trailers down there , worth about Ł2000 - 3500 according to retrorides.

Amazing , that the shop is called roscoe engineering!!

oh and forgot to say the last 2 pictures you posted are of a seperate tunnel somewere in glasgow

(am regular contributor on 28dl also )


oh and also am friendly with the guys and trust me there aint much left worth anything there now mate !!! and if there is they wouldnt sell
and you can access the place very easy by just driving down a big multistory carpark type down ramp which is the opposite side of the first pic posted .....
