My notes say that this is Sc51243 calling at Inverkeithing with the 07:03 Edinburgh Waverley to Cowdenbeath service on 15th June 1983. However, Sc51243 was a Driving Motor Brake 2nd so I can only assume I scribbled down the number of the rear car as the train pulled out! The station depicted here opened in 1890 in connection with the Forth Bridge project. It replaced the previous 1877 station which had been situated on the south side of Boreland Road overbridge at the far end of the station. The relocation was necessary as the new line to the Forth Bridge bypassed the old station which was situated on what initially became the North Queensferry branch. The station building to the right of the DMU was replaced during redevelopment of Inverkeithing station in the mid 1980s. The building on the left platform remains in use today. Brian McDevitt.

Having worked in from Waverley as 2V04, a hybrid 3 car set prepares to cross over to form the 2G36 0938 Kirkcaldy to Edinburgh service on 18th June 1983. A class 122 railcar, Sc55000, leads a couple of Metro-Cammell vehicles (51248 closest); at this point the 122 was based at Haymarket but its usefulness would mean that it was to last a further 11 years in service until withdrawal in 1994 from Laira. Beyond the station can be seen part of what was once a sprawling empire of linoleum mills. However, the distinctive smell can still be found in the town as one mill continues to produce the floor covering. The goods yard is in its latter years; the closure of the harbour branch and those mills significantly reduced the freight traffic. Latterly, a domestic coal merchant seemed to be the main user. The sight of a wee Barclay 06 parked beside the signal box was long gone. Bruce Galloway.
