107 440 (presumably 52001 leading) arrives at a busy Bridge of Weir station on the 23rd June 1981 with the 08:17 Kilmacolm - Glasgow service. Hamish Stevenson.
Set 107 440 working the 12:07 Glasgow - Kilmacolm service at Elderslie on January 7, 1983. The DMBS closest is presumably 52001. Hamish Stevenson.
Two Class 107s (107440 and presumably 52001 leading) approach the site of the closed Elderslie station at the head of the 09:45 Ayr to Glasgow Central service on Wednesday 15th June 1983. Elderslie was once a major junction on the old Glasgow & South Western system. Separate lines from Glasgow via both Paisley stations (Gilmour Street and Canal) once converged at the east end of the station whilst, to the west, the line to Greenock Princes Pier diverged from the main line to the Ayrshire coast and Stranraer. This view is looking west, the rusting rails leading towards Greenock can be seen diverging to the left just beyond the signal gantry before dropping down behind Elderslie No 2 box and passing under the Ayrshire lines to head north. The line from Greenock can be seen emerging from the right to the rear of the DMU. Elderslie station itself had closed in 1966 and this was taken from the footbridge which had once given access to the station, also now long gone. Brian McDevitt.
107 440 (and presumably 52001) leads this DMU formation at what is thought to be the former Lochgreen Junction, south of Troon, on the Ayr line heading north to Glasgow circa summer 1986. Brian Ward.
107440 arrives into Glasgow Central in June 1987. Stuart Mackay Collection.
The BLS 'Firth of Lorne' tour about to pass through Garscadden station on 30 August 1987 on its way to Oban. It was formed of 107440 (presumably 52001 closest) and 101338. Brian Ward.
Strathclyde Orange and Black vehicle Sc52001 sitting facing Class 26 26010 in the holding sidings above Dundee station. At the time I had no interest in Multiple Units so have no further information. Taken across the running lines below after the once extensive railway yards had been removed but before the current (2022) developments had been started. These sidings are still in use but the background is completely different. Alistair Fyffe.
A three-car Scottish Region Class 107 DMU (set 148) had arrived in bay platform 7 at Carlisle with a service from Kilmarnock on March 25th 1979. Only one vehicle number was captured - SC52028 at the far end, but the other two vehicles are believed to be 52002 + 59799. Martyn Hilbert.
On a snowy March 23rd 1980, a Derby built Class 107 Driving Motor Brake Second SC52002, complete with 'Greater Glasgow Trans-Clyde' branding, had been split from three-car set 148 and was stood in the yard at Hamilton Depot. SC52002 would be finally withdrawn from service in March 1986 and scrapped at Ayr Depot. Martyn Hilbert.
A Class 107 DMU set (believed to be 107441 with 52002 closest) in Kyle St. stabling point, Ayr, on the evening of 30 October 1983. This was the weekend of the "Railfair" at Ayr to celebrate the start of the Ayrshire electrification project. Andrew McConnell.
The Saturdays only 1108 Girvan to Glasgow Central rasps its way out of Paisley Gilmour Street. Class 107 DMBS SC52002 leads the way but as was normal for the period the 6 car rake comprises a mix of unit types. Bruce Galloway.
107 441 (probably 52002 + 59069 + 52019) has a Class 101 centre car when seen in Paisley Gilmour Street in late 1984. Andrew McConnell.
Sc52002 (107 441) and 107 439 (noted as SC52034) at Ayr on the 4th September 1984. The rest of 107 439 was running independently, see image 6549. Photo by MD Williams. Vincent Haworth.
Withdrawn Class 107 DMBS SC52002, Ayr depot, 17 May 1986. By the summer it would be a grounded body on the depot. The 27s are 27010 and 27047, note the Class 120 with the sheeted over cab windows. Stuart Mackay Collection.
Set 107 442 (presumably 52003 leading) heads away from the camera between Bridge of Weir and Houston with a Glasgow Central - Kilmacolm service on the 2nd December 1982. Hamish Stevenson.
107 442 (presumably with 52003 leading) is seen near Kilmacolm with a Kilmacolm - Glasgow Central service on the 2nd December 1982, just a few weeks before the line closed. Hamish Stevenson.

Three Class 107s line up at Ayr Station 29-10-83, including 107442 (presumably 52003) and 107437. This was the weekend of the Ayr depot open days. Spannerman37025.
107442 (presumably 52003) is on display at Ayr station at the Open Days of 29th and 30th (pictured) October 1983. The Open Days were held to celebrate the announcement of the electrification of the railway to Glasgow, which was completed in September 1986. Gordon Thomson.
A hybrid DMU formed SC52003 + SC59565 + SC52035 in Largs station waiting to depart to Glasgow Central on 28 December 1983. Just a few days later 52003 would be caught in a fire in Ayr depot and withdrawn. Brian Daniels.
