Outer Circle Glasgow Subway train arrives at Bridge Street Underground Station on 19 May 1977. The station master awaits its arrival, while the only intending pasenger forms a queue for the inner circle. The third rail for electric traction supply is by the wall slightly higher than the 4 foot guage tracks. The station name is repeated on stencils along the seperate domestic supply for the internal car lights, which dates back to the cable haulage days.
