The driver shields his eyes from the low winter sun as Hamilton based class 107 DMS Sc52032 leads 14:57 to Edinburgh out of Glasgow Central on24th January 1981. A class 303 working a Cathcart Circle service can be seen behind. Note the old Corkerhill allocation number 132 and later set number 150 on the 107 DMS. This seemed to be a spare vehicle that floated between sets and very soon after in would be in set 443 when the 4xx series was introduced. The Central to Edinburgh services could hardly be described as Inter-City with a pedestrian pace round the south. Sc52032 was withdrawn from Ayr depot around March 1984 having been a victim of the depot fire in the January. The by then closed store Paisleys, a once well known Glasgow tailors and outfitters can be seen behind. It closed in 1979 with the building demolished in 1993. A Jurys Inn Hotel now occupies the site.
