Gateway-to-games rail station to be given £8m facelift

A train station described as the “gateway” to Glasgow’s 2014 Commonwealth Games is to undergo an £8m overhaul in one of the first moves to extend the event’s transport legacy for the city.

Dalmarnock Station, which is run down and used mainly by football fans travelling to Celtic Park in the city’s east end, is minutes from several key games venues, including the new athletes’ village, National Indoor Sports Arena and Velodrome.
