This view looks east to Cathcart station and shows the trackbed and missing bridge of the former Lanarkshire and Ayrshire 'Cathcart bypass' (forgive my description). It is surprising that during the works to slew the track onto their new alignment and junction that some method of building platforms on the route to Newton was not found.
