A Class 107 DMU approaches Johnstone station. Noted as 1983, the Class 126 in the sidings means this must be in January as that was their last month in traffic. Andrew McConnell.
The end of the line - in more ways than one! Derby 107 triple sits at Kilmacolm in low winter sun, waiting to return to Glasgow Central during the last week. The GSWR line to Greenock Princes Pier was cut back to Kilmacolm in stages thence singled in 1973 from Cart Junction. The railway makes a sorry sight and a far cry from ‘boat trains’ passing through for Princes Pier. However, apart from the curtailed evening services, the latter-day hourly DMU commuter service to Glasgow was probably as good as it got. Tuesday 04 January 1983. alicia hartman.
Last Days. Westbound DMU rolls into Crookston station on a Glasgow Central - Kilmacolm working. After closure, the footbridge was supposedly dismantled and re-erected at Auchinleck for the station re-opening in May 1984. Maybe not so unlucky for OB 13 after all! The station building was vandalised post closure but was eventually restored as a private dwelling. The former westbound platform at Crookston re-opened in 1990 as part of a truncated service to Paisley Canal. The line was effectively a single track from Dumbreck. However, a passing loop was added at Crookston on the Glasgow side of the Crookston Road over bridge in the background. The line was eventually electrified in 2012. Probably Friday 07 January 1983. alicia hartman.

The leading Derby Set includes a Metro Cammell Driving Car from what may be 101 325. The rear Set is 107 448. Timetabled passenger services on the Paisley Canal line ended in January 1983 with the withdrawal of the Kilmacolm service. April 1983. alicia hartman.

Class 107 Slateford Road May 1984.
