Eastfield Depot (20th September 1957) - ©PM
This unusual shot shows the east end of Estfield depot with the old Caledoniaan line passing over the viaduct at the left hand side of the photograph. Although the embankment is still there, the bridge is now long gone. The locomotive (Glen Dochart) is sitting on the Edinburgh - Glasgow main line to the west of the depot. The tenement flats in the background are on Springburn Road with the allotments in front of them. Above the east end turntable (there were two at Eastfield) is a row of coal wagons which were used to fill up the Cenotaph coaling tower.
