    67004 has (believe it or not) 66178 tucked inside and is working 5D03 MX 0927 Aberdeen to Mossend empty vans. The train is passing below the signal gantry with the (at the time) only splitting distant signals left in Scotland. LN45 and LJ17 are off, signal LJ4 relates to the Carmuirs East spur.
    Turbostar 170407 passes below the gantry with 1T14 0908 Aberdeen to Glasgow Queen Street. In the foreground are shunting dummies LN28 and 29, they give access to the up yard that hasn't seen traffic for many years.
    A busy moment at Larbert as 170451 makes its departure with 2N50 1153 Stirling to Glasgow Queen Street, while 170410 speeds through non stop with 1A61 1142 Glasgow Queen Street to Aberdeen.
