That was probably the Camlachie Burn you were following, which is visible in sections around Greenfield and Springboig.

The Camlachie rises around Springboig Avenue (Springboig probably gets it's name from this) and meanders west through Greenfield, to Low Carntyne, to the edge of Shettleston, to the edge of Parkhead, to Camlachie (Forge Retail Park), changes direction sharpish to south west to go down into Bridgeton then pours into the Clyde at Glasgow Green just north of the sports complex.

The Light Burn would rise from the ground just north of the Cranhill high flats (on what was once known as Sugar Rolly Mountain), then meanders it's way south through Cranhill park, over Edinburgh Road then through Greenfield, then through Low Carntyne until it merges with the above mentioned Camlachie Burn about 200 meters east of Carntyne train station.

The other burn mentioned, which goes through Sandyhills Park, the Tollcross Burn. That rises just to the south of Easterhouse train station then meanders from there down into Barlanark, to Sandyhills, to Shettleston, to Tollcross, to Braidfauld then pours into the Clyde near Cuningar Loop.
