Balornock Shed

My camera angle didnt really do justice to the 2pm Dundee - Glasgow express as it passed St Rollox depot behind Standard 5 73078. For whatever reason, the line up at the coaling stage was preferred, with 42176, 73006 and 45497 prominent. 73078 had in previous years been a regular on the now dieselised West Highland line and looks to have been reluctant to give up her snowplough, more useful for a winter run across Rannoch Moor than for an expedition to Dundee and back.
