This was a two platform station to the south of Bridgeton Cross South Junction. The station was in a deep dressed stone cutting.
The platforms stretched from Anderson Street (now Lambert Street) to Elcho Street. The central portions of the platforms, between Anderson Street and Tureen Street, were covered by glazed canopies. The street level booking office and waiting rooms building was to the north west on Anderson Street. A footbridge behind the street level building linked to the platforms.
The platforms remain intact. The street level building was demolished in 1980. The cutting is often heavily overgrown until access requires clearance.
Bridgeton Cross South Junction (Gallowgate Central Junction) was to the north west (beyond a tunnel under Anderson Street and the Gallowgate), a junction between the lines to High Street (via [[Gallowgate Tunnel) and St Enoch (via [[Barrack Street Tunnel). To the south east the line continued through Bridgeton Central Tunnel to Bridgeton Central.
