Class 116 SC50829 leading & 107 Bridge of Weir Dec 1980.

Derby Class 107 DMU arriving at Bridge of Weir with a Kilmacolm service returning to Glasgow Central.

Derby DMU and what might be Set 139 or 142 (see later picture) departs Bridge of Weir station for Kilmacolm with a service from Glasgow Central.

However, the line soldiered on for a few more years and the end ultimately came in January 1983 with a final squeeze on PTE rail subsidies. Saturday 31 January 1981. alicia hartman.
