https://www.shedno2.co.uk/products/london-underground-1938-stock-ex-isle-of-wight Shed no.2 are selling this 483 car for £8000 - amusingly you can pay with Apple Pay. I’m not sure if this is a representative price for other scrap value stock.

Have 158s gone by road in the past to Kilmarnock for refurb work?

I had a very similar thought about the Hebridean and the Lewisman but I have no idea where they stopped on the way to Kyle. Strathcarron seems a likely stop, just serving the hotel and pub.

The Waverley calling at Newcastleton could be in contention for q1a. I’d also suggest one of the coastal villages on the fife coast expresses route but not sure they would be smaller than Newcastleton.

Sorry I miss read your original post. I wasn’t aware it was now surplus and off lease.

It’s been back running since 2016 I think

It was written off but then resurrected by Brodies in Kilmarnock and back in service. See here for details https://brodie-engineering.co.uk/case-studies/156478-submarine-or-train.html

Glasgow Subway units? Or Tyne and Wear Metro? They do run on the national rail network unlike the above - not all in service though I don’t think?

The strathspey railway were still pursuing their extension to Grantown on Spey last time I was up there pre covid, although, I can’t see any update post 2020 on their website.

I hadn’t realised 334s were part of this, I thought it was just the remaining br electrics - 318/20. They still seem new-ish to me.

The justification is correct, as under Scottish planning legislation only neighbours within a 20m radius of a proposal’s red line boundary are notified. In this case no neighbours fall within this notional 20m bubble.

I’m from Glasgow and I know people who do. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I suppose I remember it was used more when I was a small child in the late 80s when the orange trains were still relatively new and and the film/book also more culturally relevant

The Clockwork Orange - Glasgow subway

Stranraer (harbour) - Im pretty sure the last time I got a train there the ticket actually said Stranraer Harbour as the destination on it. That was way back in 2009 before the ferry left.
