GRANGEMOUTH LOCOMOTIVE DEPOT (65F) - A depot was opened in 1875 by the Caledonian Railway but this building dated from 1908 and was a 6 track dead-end shed. In more recent years, its only allocation was of shunting locos but many other classes visited there between workings. Here, in October 1988, we see, from the left, 37035, 47322, 08630, 47118 and 26008. The depot closed in 1993 and the site became a rail-linked freight depot.
