I -- and/or Mr. Dewick -- had it into head(s) that the currently-open station was Livingston North, and the not-open one, plain Livingston; so yes (presumably !), I meant the 1849 - 1948 one.

Apologies....I completely forgot about the "North" suffix carried by the currently-open station.

Parkhead North?

On the line of the NBR Coatbridge Branch, we would have first met the closed station of Bargeddie, then Parkhead North, which now leads us on to the next line of this journey, the City of Glasgow Union Railway, where the first closed station we would meet is that of.....
Gallowgate
No worries: I'm bad on this central belt of Scotland -- interesting though it is -- and pretty much "muddle along" in it.

HOLD
when we left Cumberland Street on the City of Glasgow Union Railway, we then accessed the line of the Glasgow and Paisley Joint Railway.
Two questions:-
Is Shields a closed station on that line.....or did you mean Shields Road?
Have the postings been in the correct order?

Prior to that came Milliken Park (1st station) ... but to continue.....
Dalry Junction
REMEMBER WHAT ROUTE IS STATED ON THE JOURNEY PREAMBLE FROM THIS POINT
I'd been going by what I got -- or thought I got -- from Wikipedia and its diagrammatic maps; which I seemed to read as sequence Cumberland Street -- Shields (indeed closed and on this route) -- Ibrox as per @Whistler40145; but Wiki is not infallible, and I, and my interpretations of Wiki, are for very sure, not that -- I was aware only of one, perceivedly still open, Milliken Park.
Bogside (I hope)

I have just looked at the Wikipedia line template of the Glasgow and Paisley Joint Railway where the connection comes in from the City of Glasgow Union Railway and that closed station is Shields Road. I cannot see any mention of a Shields station there.
Is Shields a station we would likely see near the Paisley Canal Line?

Not so, as we have just accessed the GPK&AR Darvel Branch Line...as per the journey preamble.
Oh, dear -- I'm confused now, re Shields, and Shields Road... back to the (metaphorical) books...
