Railtour. Looking west as BLS Railtour crawls round to Old Kilpatrick. The leading Set is a Class 120 with MC centre car whilst Set 385 on the rear is a Class 116 including a 120 DMS. The line stopped short of the Caledonian station (closed in 1964) in advance of the Erskine Bridge seen in the background. Completed in 1971 the Bridge replaced the Erskine Ferry for which the CR station would have been well placed. The North British station at Kilpatrick was to the north of the village. The oil refinery was rail served (just visible to the left) but traffic probably ceased round about the late 70's and the adjacent Admiralty siding probably some time long before that. Saturday 23 August 1986.
