The first generation DMU's were renowned for oil leaks and copious exhaust as Springburn station bares witness with the black sticky oil soaked track and a sky full of smoke. ScotRail class 101 set 101 339 is seen departing with the 17.27 to Cumbernauld despite the station clock proclaiming its "11.10". When taken on 9 July 1985 the station was in effect the terminus of two passenger routes although the DMU is on a through mainline (the Garnkirk & Glasgow line built by the Caledonian Railway). North Clyde electric services to Milngavie via Queen Street Low Level using the bay platforms (the 303 behind the DMU). North of Springburn the "mainline" saw just one passenger train a day each way that being the West Highland Sleeper service which reversed at Cowlairs West Junction. Other than that its primary use was for freight and empty stock workings until the opening of the Cowlairs chord in 1992 which allowed the Cumbernauld trains to run direct into Queen St. Adrian Nicholls.
The weather isn't exactly "flaming June" as a brace of Chester allocated 2-car class 101 'Met-Cam' DMU's (54060 closest) are seen at Barmouth during the lay over on train 2J13, the 06.43 Machynlleth to Pwllheli on 11 June 1985. This train used to stand here for 40 minutes (07.37 to 08.17) hence no driver as the crew got off for their breakfast. I believe this lengthy station stop was to allow for it to then be a schools service delivering secondary school children from the seaside villages north of Barmouth going to school in Harlech. Adrian Nicholls.
