Crossmyloof

80020 stops at Crossmyloof with an East Kilbride train in June 1963. The vans in the siding contain copies of the Radio Times from the Hairmyres factory of Waterlow & Sons awaiting shipment south. Newsprint went up to Hairmyres in trains of about 12 tarpaulin-covered wagons which, due to their weight and the gradient involved, required ex-WD 2-8-0s.
