The Port of Glasgow, Scotland

Distance to London, 405 miles; distance to Edinburgh, 42 miles. Passengers by all lines usually disembark at the wharves of these lines, located about two miles from the center of the city and the top hotels. Customs examination of baggage is conducted on the quay.

Should the tide state not permit steamers to proceed immediately up the river to Glasgow, passengers may be
landed by tender at Greenock, situated at the entrance to the Clyde and about 23 miles distant from Glasgow, and will proceed thence by train. In the latter event, the examination of baggage takes place on the pier at Greenock. The examination is conducted with celerity, only one or two .selected packages being opened for Customs Inspection.

Representatives of the railroad lines are in attendance on the steamers' arrival and will furnish all necessary information as to train service, fares, etc.
