Ah, ha.
I should say that wasn't for the trams though, it was a Corporation domestic power station.

Took this today, it was on an old lift motor room door!

I thought I'd stick this one in, even though it's in Carluke. One of the newer streets in Carluke was named after the Clydebank, Rangers, Motherwell and Scotland footballer, Davie Cooper. Someone in the council decided that calling the street "Davie Cooper Avenue" might offend some, so it got shortened to "Cooper Avenue". On the eve of the Motherwell v Rangers CIS Cup Final, known as the "Cooper Final" due to it being 10 years after his death and involving two of the teams Davie used to play for, some of the locals took it upon themselves to rename the street as it should have been originally!

Someone has just pointed out to me that the red sign which is partially obscured by the Kilmarnock Road sign is for Shawlands Cross.

Thanks to MM for pointing this out.
