Glasgow City Council said the incident in Houldsworth Street occurred on 25 February. A councillor said the vandalism is a 'blow to the community and heartbreaking for the children who loved the train'.

Vandals have caused more than £25,000 worth of damage after torching a children's playground in Glasgow. A mini climbing frame in the shape of a train was left decimated after being set ablaze in broad daylight. Glasgow City Council, which refurbished the park at a cost of £50,000 in 2020/21, said the incident in Houldsworth Street, Anderston, occurred on 25 February.

Vandals severely damaged a swing, a conical climbing frame, and a seesaw in two incidents over the festive season and on 18 January.
