I don't think this is on the Project????
The Glasgow and South-Western Railway Company commissioned a memorial for the Terminus at St. Enoch's in Glasgow.

I've heard that there may have been one in Dumfries but I'm still looking.
Anyone know anything about either???? _________________ Ken |

It's possible Dumfries was run as a joint station as it was on a G&SWR mainline but had a branch line to Lockerbie run by the Caledonian Railway. This branch line linked to the CR's main line from Glasgow to Carlisle.
Otherwise I don't see there being a station memorial for Dumfries as the men would be on the G&SWR memorial at Ayr.
I'll add I'm in no way an expert on pre-1923 (or even post 1923) Scottish railways.
Thanks
