Vehicle: 53733 Set: 535
Weird sight at Wester Hailes. The suburb of Wester Hailes grew rapidly in the 1970s but despite straddling the Edinburgh to Glasgow Central and Carstairs route, the locals were not provided with a station until May 1987. Three months after opening, we see the strange sight of a Swindon Cross Country class 120 DMU (53733 and presumably 59262 + 53654) stopping here on an Edinburgh to Glasgow Central via Shotts service. This was during the "anything goes" period where worn out DMUs displaced from Sprinterisation elsewhere were moved around the country and Scotrail got a few of these sets to tide them over during the latter half of the 1980s.
