Cats and Dogs! Looking towards Glasgow and Sc51026 is at the rear of 126 413 at East Kilbride. The rain is pouring from the gutters and the Swindon awaits the return to Glasgow Central and some respite. Focus is not great but, hey-ho, the best at the time in a downpour! Probably Monday 27 September 1982. alicia hartman.

Ayrshire Wanderer at Paisley Gilmour Street on 9 October 1982. This 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. The class also remained in service for a bit longer after the tour which had been to see them being withdrawn from service the following day. Here we see the train, led by Sc51026, arriving at Paisley where I was living at the time to stop and pick up. However, it wasn't booked to stop there on the return which was routed via the Canal line. As I was working for BR I arranged with the guard and tour organiser for a special stop to set down at Canal station. So far so good until I realised after the train had departed that the station was locked with me on the platform and the only way out was through the coal yard and over the gate. Yes Officer I can explain ………! Alistair Ness.
