The yard had been re-ballasted and a secure area set up, probably for use with the Yoker resignalling trains. In the 1970s I recall tank wagons (perhaps en route to Bowling?) and burning piles which may have been from wagon disposal.<br><br>[Ewan Crawford //1987]](/images/52000/52275.jpg "Partickhill Goods")

![A few inner Glasgow stations had these <I>mini-Solaris</I>. By comparison with their replacements they were a bit limited: no train times or clock and lack of space meant that they often displayed things like <I>all stations via...</I> or <I>all stations except...</I> which, if you were not familiar with the line, meant you had to consult a timetable anyway. Nevertheless, while waiting for a train, they were more entertaining to watch than the modern equivalent. The photograph shows the westbound Solari at Hyndland in April 1998. <br>

Livery change seems to be a slow process: it took nine years from the first appearance of the SPT maroon and cream in 1997 to repainting of the last orange and black unit. On that basis maroon and cream will be around for another eight years. Exactly a year on since its first sighting station signage rebranding seems to be the priority at present. [See image 20385].

![The opening of the Argyle Line in 1979 brought a new interchange station called Partick, with Partickhill closed the previous day. At least that was the theory, though I believe Partick wasn't ready in time and Partickhill continued to be used for some months. They are not very far apart, as proved by the fact that this photograph was taken from Partick station, but the new station gave easier access to Partick Subway station which is on the same side of Dumbarton Road. The platform buildings of the closed station, complete with namesigns, remained in place for some years after closure and the platforms are there even now. 320312 passes them on 16 June with an Airdrie service. <br>
