St Margarets Shed

D405 stands at St. Margarets up starter on 28 February 1970 waiting to proceed eastwards with a Freightliner working. The reporting number on the Class 50's trailing end indicates that it had arrived in Glasgow on the previous evening's sleeper departure from Birmingham New St., so the origin of this particular train was probably Gushetfaulds FLT. There was a booked SX afternoon working from there at 14.48 to Portobello and I surmise this was an additional working of that train, albeit running rather earlier than the weekday timings.
