Dumfries

A Glasgow - Carlisle service approaching the Dumfries stop in 2018. The SPT liveried DMU is passing Dumfries signal box which opened in 1957 replacing several older boxes in the area. The feathers on the signal at the end of the down platform controlled the junction for the former Stranraer route, the surviving stub of which, running as far as the ICI polypropylene plant at Cargenbridge, was officially closed in 1994.
