314207 at Glasgow Centraldebranded SPT Carmine and Cream liveried 314207 prepares to depart Glasgow Central with 2D25 12.12 Glasgow Central - Paisley Canal 1.9.18 The Class 314's are the only Scotrail units to retain the former SPT Carmine and Cream livery.    9 of the 16 strong fleet: (314201, 202, 205, 206, 207, 210, 213, 215 and 216) still carry the livery that was at one time carried by all the class 314's, 318's, 320's and 334's as well as a number of  class 156's and 170's.   The livery was also carried by 4 class 303's (303019, 021, 023 and 087) before their withdrawal in 2002.  

The veteran units, which entered service in 1979 operate on the Cathcart Circle, Newton, Neilston, Paisley Canal, Gourock and Wymess Bay lines and are due for withdrawal in 2019 when it is expected that they will be replaced by the brand new class 385 units.

On Saturday 1st September, the Carmine and Cream examples were out in force with 314202, 205, 206, 207 and 210 spotted in and around Glasgow Central in a 20 minute spell.

I got a few photos of 314205 (as well as a journey onboard from Glasgow Central - Newton) and a few of 314207, which was waiting to depart with a service from Glasgow Central to Paisley Canal.
