Barcaldine Halt: Extract from the Scottish Region timetable winter 1960-61 showing the Glasgow to Oban line and branches.

Winchcombe: Despite the lack of visual effects, 7820 'Dinmore Manor' was working hard climbing the gradient at Winchcombe on 19th September 2020 and there was plenty of 'chimney music' at the lineside.
