KeithMacdonald Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Thanks to Geoff Marshall, a tour of the new Glasgow subway trains. Definitely new, maybe not quite as orange as the old trains? 10 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might have a wee trip to capture the old and new stock . I believe they are both running at the moment with the new stock being phased in I remember doing the full circuit when the new trains came in in 1980 . Makes me realise how old I am . I really like Geoff Marshall’s films 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
darrel Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 One thing I have noticed with the new trains is how quiet they are internally. With the old trains its impossible to hold a conversation while the train is on the move. On the new trains it was perfectly possible to talk to my wife. I was very impressed with them.
