4 assorted class 120 and 101 vehicles lie at Falkland Yard in summer 1986 alongside a pair of Class 303 units. The brake van and the missing pantograph showing that the 303s are probably not in Ayr to participate in the livening up of the Ayrshire Electrification programme. Andrew McConnell.
A view inside Ayr depot on the morning of 24/7/87 shows a line of driving motor cars, with cl.120 no.53741 (labelled for 120 518) most prominent. To its left is the cab of 53651 and behind it are cl.104 53505 and cl.105 53380. All the cars are now withdrawn and are being stripped for spares. Leonard Rogers.
E59245 on Ayr shed. It was transferred from Heaton to Eastfield in early October 1987, and would initially run between DMSs 52053 + 52059 which had been at Ayr for a few months but would also move to Eastfield. The vehicle has very recently been repainted, but still has an E prefix, perhaps suggesting that the inter-regional move was not planned. The Met-Camm centre car alongside seems to have a scotty dog on the bodyside. Andrew McConnell.
