British Rail Scotrail 1989-Dalmuir, Hyndland & Glasgow Central with 90, 101, 107, 303, 311, 314, 318 

Miss them trains, back when I was a kid

Thanks for another dosage of nostalgia :)

314s were still common on the Cathcart Circle and Neilston lines until just over a year ago. Great video.

Lovely video again that captures the daily working in Scotland ... but oh dear! Someone left the headlights on at the rear of the unit at 2:20 😳

Excellent railway video as always Soi

Oh yes, this brings back memories. In the early 80s I was a postgraduate student at Strathclyde university, and I stayed in a student residence in Bearsden. I took the train to Glasgow Queen Street (low level) every day. Most services were worked by 303 units, but some were worked by 314s which were still quite new. The 303s were originally painted in electric blue, and some people still referred to them as the " Blue trains". The orange livery started to appear in 1983 ( I wonder what Catholics thought of it). Hyndland station which we saw here is actually a re-sited station. The original station was a terminus on a short spur from the line from Partick. The station was demolished, but the tracks were still down when I was there, and used as a stabling point for the emus. I expect they are gone now.

Class 303s in Strathclyde black and orange; my 80s childhood in Greenock

I'm glad the 303s lasted well to get a brace in 1996 between Motherwell and Glasgow Central. MC Metals were mighty busy in 1989!

Nice one Soi

I guess that 90 must have been almost brand new when this was filmed. Sad to think they have now all but disappeared on passenger trains - though I guess they will be around on freight and charters for a while yet. 90001 and 002 have recently been repainted into Intercity which makes for a delightful blast from the past!

Class 311 electric units look almost like the Class 303 sets except they were built by Craven's.

Interesting mix of motive power. I'd forgotten all about the 314s, apparently there are still 2 left.

What's the main difference of the class 303 and 311 and how many sets of both I miss these old trains

Now that is when the railway was brilliant then, trains were on time, no strikes, nothing. Look at the Railway now, Its a shambles

Thanks Soi. I bet none of the 303's made it to preservation.

Little dark age starts playing

When were the Class 311's withdrawn? You also forgot to mention 318's as well.

Is it just me that thinks the quality is a tad watery and weird in comparison to other videos by Soi?
