Wemyss Bay

Wemyss Bay station on 12th May 1985, with a Class 303 unit in Strathclyde PTE livery awaiting its return to Glasgow Central . The poster proclaims that “Red Star goes like there’s no tomorrow”. This boast was inevitably a hostage to eventual fortune because by 2001 the Red Star parcels service was gone and had no tomorrow. Class 303 units (formerly the “Blue” trains), ran out of tomorrows a year later in 2002.
