Bit of an odd request I know. Does anyone have a list of the destinations that featured on the final blinds fitted to Scotrail's Class 314 fleet?

I'm having doubts over whether it's Cathcart Circle via Mount Florida or via Queens Park

Perhaps someone can confirm if "via Mount Florida" is right

In class 303 (refurbished) days (prior to 314) the outer circle was "via" Queens Park and the inner circle was "via" Maxwell Park. I put the word "via" in inverted commas because of course all outer circle trains and all inner circle trains called at both Queens Park and Maxwell Park


So it looks like the 314s for a period had "via Mount Floida" for outer circle services.

When Paisley Canal was electrified in 2012 the 314s could only display 'Paisley'. Shortly afterwards they recieved their new blinds, complete with destinations that would in practice never be reached again.

I have an idea that pre-Paisley Canal the blinds were slightly different. I have memories of seeing "Inner Circle" and "Outer Circle" on the destination side blind.
