Glasgow Central station remains closed after major fire and building collapse

Glasgow Central station remains closed after a major fire and building collapse at a vape shop next door to the station. The blaze, which started on Sunday afternoon, gutted the mid-Victorian Forsyth building, destroying shops, businesses, and causing significant damage. The fire service was called in, with two appliances continuing to hose down the interior of the burning building from high aerial lift platforms. No significant damage was done to the station itself, but surrounding streets have been cordoned off by police due to smoke and debris. An investigation is ongoing into the cause of the fire, which witnesses reported hearing explosions during. The station will remain closed until at least Tuesday, with no estimated reopening date yet announced.
