12th October 1986
A class 120 3 car dmu working 2J52 12.30 (Suns) Dundee to Edinburgh makes it's way up the grade to Lochmuir in central Fife on 12th October 1986. A hotchpotch of multiple unit types had replaced the loco hauled services for the 1986/87 timetable with inevitable results. Their replacement by class 150 units must have viewed as a step forward by the long suffering passengers but still hardly compared to the loco hauled service provided the previous year. At least, thats my view... In the background lies the village of Freuchie, at the south western corner of the fertile Howe of Fife. Beyond it lie the villages of Newton of Falkland and Falkland itself. The former station (out of shot to the left) lay some distance from it's intended destination. Ryanair would approve. Bruce Galloway.
