Введение
Станция метро Глазго Келвинхолл (до 1977 года – Партик Кросс) – подземная станция Глазго метро, переименованная в честь расположенного поблизости Келвин-Холла. Она находится в Вест-Энде Глазго, Шотландия, недалеко от многих известных туристических достопримечательностей города, включая:
Художественную галерею и музей Кельвингроув
Парк Кельвингроув
Университет Глазго
Kelvinhall (Partick Cross until 1977) is an underground station on the Glasgow Subway, renamed after the nearby Kelvin Hall. It is located in the West End of Glasgow, Scotland, near to many of the city's best known tourist destinations including:
The Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum
Kelvingrove Park
The University of Glasgow
There was previously a Kelvin Hall railway station, but it was unattached to the subway station, which was at any rate still known as Partick Cross at the time of that station's closure in 1964 as part of the Beeching axe. The station entrance is located off Dumbarton Road at the end of a narrow arcade of shops below flats. The station retains its original island platform layout and has no escalators. The renovation work at Kelvinhall station during the 1977–1980 modernisation of the Subway was not as extensive as most of the other stations on the network: other than Cessnock, it is the only station to retain its original entrance and surface buildings, which would be virtually invisible from the street without the signage. Kelvinhall (under its former name of Partick Cross) is one of the stations mentioned in Cliff Hanley's song The Glasgow Underground. The Glasgow Subway is operated by the Strathclyde Partnership for Transport (SPT).
Ранее существовала железнодорожная станция Кельвин-Холл, но она не была связана со станцией метро, которая в любом случае называлась Партик Кросс на момент закрытия этой станции в 1964 году в рамках программы Бичинга. Вход на станцию расположен на улице Дамбартон-Роуд в конце узкой галереи магазинов под жилыми домами. Станция сохранила свою первоначальную островную платформу и не имеет эскалаторов. Ремонтные работы на станции Келвинхолл во время модернизации метро в 1977–1980 годах были не такими масштабными, как на большинстве других станций сети: наряду с Сесснок, это единственная станция, сохранившая свой первоначальный вход и наземное здание, которое без указателей было бы практически незаметно с улицы. Келвинхолл (под прежним названием Партик Кросс) – одна из станций, упомянутых в песне Клиффа Хэнли «The Glasgow Underground». Эксплуатацией Глазго метро занимается Стратклайдское партнерство по транспорту (SPT).
