Though one of the less exotic trains to use the line, this humble Class 156 DMU, on a service from Edinburgh to Glasgow Central via Shotts, nonetheless makes a fine sight crossing the Clyde viaduct at Uddingston in the winter sunshine on 13th January 2015.

The 1848 Caledonian Railway cast iron viaduct at Uddingston (foreground) looks solid enough in 2015 (and was put on the market for sale in 1993) but is now designated 'At Risk'. Its 1903 latticework replacement (behind) still carries the West Coast Main Line, Edinburgh and local traffic across the Clyde between Uddingston and Newton.
