Glasgow Works

Glasgow Works, formerly the St Rollox Works, is a railway rolling stock heavy maintenance and repair works established in the 1850s in the Glasgow district of Springburn by the Caledonian Railway Company, and known locally as 'the Caley'.

Ownership of the works passed to the LMS in the 1920s and then to British Rail in the 1940s, with the size of the works reduced in the 1980s under British Rail Engineering Limited management. It was sold as part of the privatisation of British Rail in 1995 and after numerous ownership changes the site was operated by Mutares-owned subsidiary Gemini Rail under a lease from the landlord, Hansteen Holdings.

The site was purchased by businessman and philanthropist David Moulsdale in 2021 before achieving listed status in 2022. The site has since been fully restored, opened and connected to the railway mainline and operates as a joint venture with Gibsons Engineering Ltd who maintain, repair and build rolling stock for the mainline railway and light rail tram systems. There are future plans to create a high-tech heavy engineering and manufacturing site, and the depot is currently undergoing electrification to allow EMU/electric rail vehicles to enter unaided from the mainline.
