A Virgin Voyager has just passed through Carstairs South Junction on its way from Glasgow Central to Birmingham New Street on a damp December afternoon in 2004. In the middle distance the River Clyde meanders off to the right towards Lanark after passing below Float Viaduct, while on the left, part of the embankment that once carried the line between Float Junction and Lampits Junction, closed as long ago as 1860, can still be clearly seen.
