The Glasgow Paisley and Ardrossan Canal later known as the Glasgow Paisley and Johnstone Canal was a canal in the west of Scotland running between Glasgow Paisley and Johnstone which later became a railway. Despite the name the canal was never completed down to Ardrossan the termini being Port Eglinton in Glasgow and Thorn Brae in Johnstone. Within months of opening the canal was the scene of a major disaster.
