Braehead Viaduct
The 1015 Glasgow - Aberdeen service, diverted to start from Glasgow Central due to the Queen Street High Level Tunnel works, passes over the Bargeddie M8 viaduct just over a year after it opened. The temporary embankments used in construction have long gone and the carriageways of the new M8 extension now run under the viaduct. The eagle eyed viewer need have no concern over what appears to be a stowaway in a yellow hi-viz jacket sitting on the rear coupler, he is in fact working on the abutment for the new Bredisholm Road M8 overbridge.
