Instamatic Interludes. Derby Set 155 on 14:15 (Su) Glasgow Central - Carlisle working at Kilmarnock. There were a couple of return workings on a Sunday - including this and an evening service. A change from the usual weekday locomotive hauled Carlisle services. These Sunday DMU workings occasionally produced LM Derby Lightweight sets - but never when a camera was available. Sunday 09 September 1979. alicia hartman.

Class 107 Crookston Dec 1980. Living in Paisley at the time I took a day out one Saturday to film the Ayr (formerly Hamilton based) Derby's as we called them on the Paisley Canal line and Kilmacolm branch. Why I did this in December and not when the weather was better I'll never know! Leaving everything to the last minute I suppose. Alistair Ness.

Derby Set 149 pulls away from Paisley Canal on 13:07 Glasgow Central - Kilmacolm as passengers cross the temporary footbridge. The operational station building and footbridge was on the Causeyside Street overbridge, behind the DMU. However, this burned down and was replaced by a Portakabin on the Glasgow bound platform (visible to the left of the leading cab) adjacent to the moribund main station building. Ironically, the building survived closure as a pub / restaurant. Saturday 15 November 1980. alicia hartman.
Six car Class 107 DMU speeds past Elderslie No.1 Signal Box on 14:00 Glasgow Central - Ayr service from Paisley Gilmour Street. The rear Set has one all blue DMBS car. The Gilmour Street lines are straight behind whilst the Paisley Canal lines veer off to the right, behind the DMUs and Signal Box. Rumoured to be the last surviving GSWR signal, a lower quadrant shunt signal was still extant at Elderslie (see cracking David Christie picture on Railcar). Whilst the rail infrastructure has changed out of all recognition post electrification, a view here is no longer possible - the road overbridge has gone, as have the Millarston high flats in the distance on the left! Saturday 15 November 1980. alicia hartman.
Derby Class 107 DMU crosses the mainlines at Elderslie No.1 Signal Box onto the Paisley Canal lines with 14:03 Kilmacolm - Glasgow Central working. There was one Kilmacolm train a day via Gilmour Street in the last public timetable, an early morning service that stopped at Hillington West, Gilmour Street thence Houston and Crosslee as normal. There was no return working in the public timetable. Kilmacolm line services from Cart Junction and Elderslie No.2 came in on the line second from left. Kilmacolm bound trains were routed onto the line leading off to the right towards Elderslie No.2 Signal Box. Elderslie station closed in 1966 and the two island platforms were in the large gaps either side of the mainlines in the foreground. Saturday 15 November 1980. alicia hartman.
Largs station in December 1980 and a six car 107 set departs for Glasgow on a typically dreich afternoon. At that stage, Largs still had three platform faces - Platform 1 nearest with the Derby Heavyweight departing from Platform 2. Platform 3 is behind the DMU. Note the 'running in board' in the middle of the platform and the signal box beyond the road bridge. Despite the three platforms the station throat was rationalised some years previously. The signal box burned down in the mid eighties, before electrification and further track rationslisation. Today, Largs has two platform faces (what were Platforms 2 and 3) at the end of what is effectively a single track electric branch from Ardrossan South Beach. alicia hartman.
