Not Glasgow I know, but I thought it was interesting, ex Northern Scottish-last stop before the breakers, Dundee mid 80's. http://img13.photobucket.com/albums/v37/gridrunner/e004-01.jpg The fleet number appears to be NT120M, is there any way to trace it's history, just out of curiosity, like?

Strathclyde Transport Irn Bru.
Not middle class enough for the new Glasgow. ( tho' I like it)

According to the log book, my car is Lava Gray metallic- looks brown to me.

I'm assuming that's a political red, in the way many folk refer to the Irish flag as green, white and gold?

I like it though, the Dutch, resplendent in their Strathclyde red strips. :D

How come Cathcart Circle trains are orange and black with white details, I only ask because this is almost exactly the same colours as CIE trains in Ireland?

Worth a look me thinks?

Retired people in cars, they've nowt better to do and all day to do it, and of course much safer to drive at the speed limit - 10 mph, don't these people have rearview mirrors?

The East coast is better for defences, Tentsmuir Forest is littered with dragons teeth and pillboxes, there was also a Polish army camp there during the war, though I never found it.
