NS6371 : Cadder Yard & Sidings
near to Lumloch, East Dunbartonshire, Great Britain

Cadder Yard & Sidings
View along the main line to Lenzie on the Glasgow to Edinburgh inter-city route. Originally this was an important hump-shunted yard, the hump being located to the near left of the picture. Much of these rail workings, including the signal boxes were removed between 1970-1980, and now only provides passing loops on either side of the main line with a few maintenance sidings to the south (right hand) side.
A short goods branch - called Wilderness Plantation spur - started from here and ran south to the Bishopbriggs Oil Depot and onwards to Mavis Valley and its colliery.
