[The dome on that building has now completely collapsed
after the fire spread through it]


Dodgy chargers in the Vape shop
I assume

That station was such a large part of my youth. Every time a band released a new album, i got the train to central station and walked round the corner to Listen records. I was usually able to buy the album, and then get on the same train to take me home.

Those were the days :laugh:

…crikey, huge amount of damage to the station and surrounding buildings as well as disrupting so much travel but let’s hope for no one hurt ….

Just how?

I take it the no logo "shop" had all the safety certificates for lithium batteries etc?

right?

[AnnieK]

I was going to say, I bet its the batteries. Those lithium batteries burn are so hard to extinguish if they go up

[bots]

The station itself appears to have escaped any serious damage, which is incredible given the scale of the fire

Well done to the station staff.

They seem to be building many of these ticking time bombs all over the country. All planned.

The Fire Team are still having to spray
Water onto the well-damaged railway station

I wonder when we will find out who owns this shop and was it legally there or not??

[Crimson Dynamo]

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand we just did

--------------------------

The shop where Sunday’s devastating fire started does not appear on the Scottish
Government’s register of tobacco and vape retailers, which all vape sellers are required
by law to join

Scotland's vape shop registration scheme can today be exposed as a farce.

A Daily Record investigation found any business could register their shop with no
safety checks and within a day be on the SNP Government’s Register.
