In a typical April day of sunshine and showers, HR 103 heads off from Linwood towards Blackstone Junction on the Glasgow to Gourock line - it had arrived in pouring rain. The train was the Easter Rambler No 4, and the date was 17 April 1965. Its previous port of call had been Renfrew Wharf. Middleton Siding, removed by 1965, was a headshunt in Linwood alongside which the Linwood nurseries were built.
