A Met-Camm set with SC50172 on the rear waits for the signal to run through the tunnel to Haymarket at Princes Street Gardens, Edinburgh, on 26/08/78. The DMS was a recent transfer from England, hence the unpainted window frames which ScR vehicles normally had. Steve Jones.

September 1978
Two class 101 triples, one in all-blue still and the other in "refurbished" livery, head away from the photographer, past Barnhill station on the left, travelling on the link from Springburn up to the old Caledonian main line out of Glasgow at St Rollox. This may be a Glasgow - Stirling working, diverted off the E&G main line by a reversal at Cowlairs. (No Cowlairs Chord in those days.) On this Sunday in early September 1978, engineering work on the main line meant that services out of Queen St were being diverted via Springburn and Cumbernauld. Nowadays the footbridge at the end of Flemington St from which this photo was taken no longer exists, the tracks on which the train is running are electrified and the linesides are a "jungle". Leonard Rogers.

October 1978
A Class 101 at Whitby in October 1978. Still unrefurbished and in blue livery, this unit has just arrived from Middlesbrough. Plenty of history in this image, with orange BR NER signage, station accessories / equipment plus all the tracks into the station terminus are still intact. With diminishing services, the station was later rationalised to just the single track on the left. However, the platform at which this unit is standing was restored to use in 2014 for NYMR services.
