Class 126 Hunterston 9 Oct 1982. The 'Ayrshire Wanderer' tour was organised by the Swindon Preservation Society and used the same name as the previous year's BLS tour doing exactly what it said on the headboard.

December 1982
Set: 126413
End of Days. Late Saturday afternoon and Swindon Inter-City 126 413, with DMSL Sc51017 nearest, idles at Largs on Platform 2. It will work back to Glasgow Central once the crew return and the tail lamp is removed. The high contrast is due due to the low winter sun ... and under exposure! December 1982. alicia hartman.
December 1982
The now preserved Sc51017 heading Class 126 Swindon Intercity DMU set 126406 at Kilmacolm on the last weeks in service for both the Swindon and the Branch itself. The guard is carrying the oil tail lamp to the far end of the unit. Experienced Swindon DMU guards would often be seen casually stepping out of the van at a convenient point on the platform of terminus stations to wait for the end of the set to draw to a gentle halt right alongside. A lost art. Andrew McConnell.
