12th May 1981

Set: 135

Set 135 at Muirhouse South Junction, heading for Glasgow Central on the 10:12 from East Kilbride. The former Glasgow St Enoch line (St Enoch station closed in 1966) is on the right. The line on the left is the Cathcart Circle, electrified in 1962. The large building in the distance is the former Glasgow Corporation Tramway Works (Coplawhill). By that time it was the Transport Museum. However, it relocated to Kelvin Hall in 1987, only to further relocate to a new purpose built ‘Riverside Museum’ in 2011. Coplawhill Works is still extant as the ‘The Tramway Theatre’ but the shed nearest the railway was demolished and a Gurdwara has been constructed. Muirhouse South was previously known as Strathbungo Junction and the former Strathbungo station, closed in 1962, is immediately behind the camera. Tuesday 12 May 1981. alicia hartman.
