A mixed pair of a 318 320 on a Larkhall to Dalmuir service followed by a 334 on a Dalmuir to Whifflet service. An unusual service pattern occurs on the lines around the Clydebank area with train via Glasgow Central Low Level. Westbound trains from Larkhall travel via Yoker and Eastbound trains towards Larkhall travel via Singer. Conversely, Westbound trains from Whifflet travel via Singer, and ...

Caledonian Sleeper 5B26 0819 Edinburgh to Polmadie passing Carstairs on 14th August 2024 hauled by GB Railfreight 92018. The new Carstairs Chord line allows these services to not only avoid the platform lines of Carstairs Station, but also to pass through at a brisker 40mph as opposed to the more stately 20mph of the previous layout (still applicable to trains serving or passing through the sta...

A mix of some classic Virgin Trains West Coast Pendolinos filmed over the last few years of the operation of the franchise, including some rare footage of the revised 'flowing silk' livery that would have been applied across the fleet had they won a renewal in 2019. Some footage was gathered while I was lineside. This will have been filmed from a position of safety with an appropriate safe syst...

London North Eastern Railway 'Azuma' passing Auchengray, South Lanarkshire with 5S04 1149 Edinburgh to Glasgow Central. This is a regular route learning run carried out by LNER, as the normal 2x daily passenger service to Glasgow Central (which runs empty in one direction each time), is insufficient to keep their Edinburgh drivers fully trained.

CrossCountry 'Super Voyager' 221132 passes through Carluke Station with 1D99 0625 Edinburgh to Glasgow Central. A mainly positioning move before turning around and heading to Plymouth. CrossCountry services to Glasgow have been rare (2 trains a day) since Covid, and it seems unlikely they will ever return to their 2hr frequency service.

GBRf 92033 hauling Caledonian Sleeper 1S26 2350 London Euston to Glasgow Central through Carluke, South Lanarkshire. This is just a few miles north of Carstairs, where it splits into Glasgow and Edinburgh portions. It will now call at Motherwell before terminating at Glasgow Central.

Direct Rail Services 57308 was despatched from Carlisle Kingmoor as 1Z99 (standard headcode for a rescue locomotive) to Abington on the 9th September 2024 to recover a failed Avanti West Coast Pendolino that had come to a stand on the Down West Coast Main Line. All traffic, including the rescue locomotive, had to travel 'wrong line' between the south end of Beattock Summit and the north end of ...
