Last Days. Derby Class 107 triple returning on an afternoon Kilmacolm to Glasgow Central working. The view is from Sandholes Road over bridge with the city bound DMU heading past Brookfield en route to Houston and Crosslee station. The station is in the distance, beyond the footbridge and the tree line. Probably Friday 07 January 1983. alicia hartman.

The 11:07 Glasgow - Kilmacolm service is seen at Elderslie on January 7, 1983. Hamish Stevenson.
Last Day No.7. Derby 107 435 (107 DMBS - 107 TS - 101 DMS) is heading away from the camera towards Cart Junction on the 'Up Branch' from Elderslie No.2. The Unit is forming the 10:07 Glasgow Central - Kilmacolm service. Saturday 08 January 1983. alicia hartman.
Last Day No.8. Looking west as mixed 107 435 climbs from Cart Junction towards Elderslie No.2 on the 11:01 Kilmacolm - Glasgow Central working. The Derby (with MC DMS to rear) is on the 'Down Branch' line and the 'Up Branch' line via the fly-under from Elderslie No. 2 is on the left. Saturday 08 January 1983. alicia hartman.
On the last day of Kilmacolm services - 8 January 1983 - hybrid DMU set 107435 (presumably with 51996 closest) is seen at Houston with a mid-morning service. This line, the last closure in Scotland which would never happen today, fell because of squabbling between District Council, Regional Authority and PTE funding. Alistair Ness.
DMU set 107 435 with the 10:07 Glasgow - Kilmacolm service near Bridge of Weir on January 8, 1983. The DMBS closest is presumably 51996. Hamish Stevenson.
Last Day No.1. The 08:50 Kilmacolm - Glasgow service (ex. 08:07 from Glasgow via Gilmour Street) crosses the Black Cart Water on the approach to Cart Junction. This is probably 107 435 (with 101 DMS to rear) which was diagrammed on the branch that day. The trackbed and bridge in the foreground is the GSWR route from Cart Junction to Brownhill Junction via Kilbarchan. The Kilmacolm bridge was dismantled and the line breeched by the A737 Johnstone Bypass further north. Most of both routes to the west are now part of the Sustrans National Cycle Route network. Saturday 08 January 1983. alicia hartman.
Last Day No.14. View from Sandholes Road over bridge as westbound 107 435 leans into the reverse curves on its way to Bridge of Weir. The Derby (with Metro Camell DMS leading) is forming the 12:07 Glasgow Central - Kilmacolm working. Saturday 08 January 1983. alicia hartman.
Last Day No.15. Derby 107 435 returns from Kilmacolm on the 13:01 working to Glasgow Central. It is crossing the Locher Water on the Lochermill Viaduct and heading towards Houston and Crosslee station. Cars on the A761 are visible above the DMU by the fenceline and Ranfurly, on the outskirts of Bridge of Weir, on the hillside beyond. Not sure what the driver has rolled up in the cab - a last day souvenir poster perhaps! Saturday 08 January 1983. alicia hartman.
