A 1967 'grab shot' of Standard 4 2-6-4T 80004 at Eglinton Street Goods depot, taken from a passing Gourock-Glasgow train. The scene looks somewhat unremarkable, but this was the Friday of the final week of active Scottish-based steam, and the passing train was the final steam-hauled service from Gourock, so there was a bit of history being recorded.
