More information:

. Recorded at the recorded location in 2016, the image fixes a recognisable subject and its environment at one point in time, giving later viewers a reliable basis for comparison. The frame specifically shows St Enoch subway Underground Station, Glasgow, Scotland. Other connected aspects include transport accessibility, public transport stop, public realm, period detail, public transport information, bus route infrastructure, changing land use, community identity, historical comparison, street-side transport, bus infrastructure, documentary photography, local history, and contemporary social history. Today's relevance is strengthened by local connectivity, passenger information and the continuing question of the importance of bus stops as the physical interface between passengers and public transport. For later comparison, the photograph preserves commercial use and occupation at the recorded location, details that may look very different after different community use. The subject also sits alongside roadside transit, surface public transport, place identity, visual archive, local mobility, changing streetscape, before-and-after reference, and roadside stop. Elements such as Enoch, Glasgow, Scotland, Underground, and subway add documentary specificity and may become increasingly useful when compared with later records. The lack of a more precise address does not reduce the archival value of H9PM3C: the photographed subject, St Enoch subway Underground Station, Glasgow, Scotland, remains tied to a specific date and visual context. Another useful connection is local connectivity and the importance of bus stops as the physical interface between passengers and public transport when considered against later change at the recorded location. The scene further reflects accessibility and the importance of bus stops as the physical interface between passengers and public transport without losing the local specificity of the recorded location.
