Cl 108 M53926, SC59060 & M51567 at Inverkeithing Tuesday 7th June 1983
This shot of Set 358 was taken at Inverkeithing on the morning of Tuesday 7th June 1983. M53926 sets off on the climb to the Forth Bridge with the 08:38 Kirkcaldy – Edinburgh Waverley service.
The leading vehicle is M53926 a Driving Motor Brake 2nd which had begun life as M50926, part of a powered twin set. Both M50926 and M51567 had been part of the same order in late 1959 / early 1960, M50926 being originally allocated to Wrexham.
The trailer car, Sc59060, was a Metropolitan Cammell Trailer 2nd originally delivered to the Northe Eastern Region in early 1957 as part of a 4 car set for use on the Darlington – Saltburn service.
The platform to the right of the DMU is partially built over the Keithing Burn which flows into the River Forth. When the DMU sets out across the Forth Bridge, some two miles to the south, it will be 150 feet above the waters of the Forth.
