The high level station serves a mainline to Edinburgh, with modern diesel trains completing the journey to the capital in about 45 minutes, with onward connections to Fife and Aberdeen. A line also runs to Perth, passing through Larbert, Stirling, and Dunblane. Also leaving from the high level are trains on the West Highland Line, taking in the spectacular scenery as far as Fort William, and then onto Mallaig. The main line approaches to the station come through the mile long Cowlairs Tunnel, which runs beneath the Buchanan Galleries shopping mall to the Sighthill area North East of the city centre where the tracks emerge and diverge to their various routes. Following the demolition in 1977 of St Enoch Station, which was situated near the opposite end of Queen Street, Queen Street high level is now the only vaulted railway station left in Scotland. Follwing the construction of a rather unattractive office block in front of the George Square station entrance in the 1970s, the main station building is effectively screened from view.

The low level station forms the hub of the North Clyde Line of the Glasgow suburban electric network. Trains run frequently between Helensburgh, on the Firth of Clyde, and Airdrie — on the edge of the West of Scotland conurbation. The stretch of this line between High Street, Queen Street and Charing Cross was in fact built before the Glasgow Underground, making it the oldest piece of underground railway in the city.

Various schemes to link Queen Street to Central Station have been considered over the years, as Glasgow's weakest link in railway terms is that passengers travelling from the north of Scotland to the south via Glasgow and vice-versa have to traverse the city centre by road via a shuttle bus, or on foot. The preferred solution to the problem is a "Crossrail" initiative which would use a disused freight line which links High Street to the Gorbals area. This initiative [1] was recently awarded a grant from the Scottish Executive to investigate costs for possible link to be built between the two halves of the Glasgow rail network. A date of 2009 is estimated for completion of the project. The term Scottish Executive is used in two distinct but closely related senses. ...
