Hi all. I've been following progress of the Class 380 driver training runs this week during the day and at night as well as capturing a few photographs of the New Measurement Train at Bellgrove station yesterday which was working practically everywhere in the central belt of Scotland, going via the new Airdrie - Bathgate route. Unfortunately I wasn't able to travel on the A - B route to grab a few shots but Bellgrove is still a rare shot to see the train and as an added bonus it stopped for a signal check for five minutes. Photographs and more information can be found by clicking on the links below
