Scope and Content Train approaching Cathcart Station, Glasgow This shows the 5.30pm Cathcart Outer Circle train arriving at Cathcart Station. The locomotive is of London, Midland & Scottish Railway (LMS) design, and the coaches are of mixed LMS and British Railways designs. Note overhead wires for impending electrification. This photograph was taken shortly before steam suburban services on the south side of Glasgow were supplanted by electric trains. The locomotive is one of a class that dominated these services from about 1950 to the end of steam. This section of railway line is part of the Cathcart District Railway. This section was opened in 1894, completing the Cathcart Circle. The original Cathcart terminus, opened in 1886, was on the site of the coal depot on the right in this view.
