Please do not post replies with random pictures in the 'Glasgow Development & Demolition' section of the forum. That section is for news on the latest developments happening in Glasgow - it's not for random pictures which tell us nothing. If you want to create a record of the changes to this station, keep the pics in this thread. James H |

Ok doke James, cheers;). Nice work Cybers. I like the second shot best. The glimpses of daylight appearing through the concrete structures is a goodie:). I'll be popping back from time to time like I say in order to have an archive of photographs shwing the station from how it is now through to works in progress and straight through until completion of the refurbishment project.

A Blast From The Short Past: Original Class 318 EMU PicsHi all.I've compiled and added a new gallery to my site containing all of the photographs I was able to take (74 all in all) of the original Class 318 E.M.U. fleet which phased out completely in October 2007 as the final unit went in for refurbishment a Hunslet and Barclay a.k.a. Brush Barclay Works at present. All photograph captions have been filled in as well as a full commentary box. These photographs may bring back some memories for you perhaps.

Excellent shot there Doug Doug, for back in the day anyway;)

| Saltmarketeer |
I loved the 318's. My first experience of air-bag suspension. Them being phased out makes me feel old!
Wouldn't mind some of those new Class-180's, though. A nice ride and bloody handsome stock if you ask me. |
||||
| james73 |
They are not being phased out. James H |
||||
| Doog Doog |
Thanks Jonno,the camera was a Mamiya DSX 1000 SLR with a f1.4 standard lens,a replacement for a Cosina that was lost on a trip. It was a bloody good camera but it got trashed in a bike accident - the lens survived though. |
||||
| Saltmarketeer |
I must have read Jonno's blurb wrong. 
|
||||
| jonno22 |
Sorry to hear about the camera Doug Doug, good you got that pic out of it though:). The old 318s have completely phased out which was what I meant incase there has been any confusion;)
Best Regards Jonathan McGurk |
||||
| Doog Doog |
Refurbished,is the word you're looking for.
|
||||
| jonno22 |
correct Doug Doug, though I could not put end of the 'refurbished' 318s in my title because thatwould then be a false and confusing statement and would not make any sense.
