The coming of 4-car class 380s in December will mean that platforms
along their routes, in Inverclyde and Ayrshire, will have to be able to accommodate 8-car trains rather than the current 6. Many if not most are therefore being extended. Here at Troon on 1 September a 6-car Juniper approaches bound for Ayr, passing the extension works. That hardware on the northbound platform (the smaller one is an 'OFF' indicator) will have to be moved along a bit.
