Some large trees have been felled at Busby station, presumably in preparation for masts.

The platform at Giffnock is not quite finished but six car trains are running again.
The Giffnock platform is almost complete, another couple of weeks should see it done. Also, all the twin track cantilevers between Giffnock and Clarkston have booms and wire supports fitted.
Heading into Glasgow Central yesterday afternoon and passed a Pendolino between Mount Florida and Crosshill. Was there a problem with the main line? Odd to see such a big train passing through the tight cuttings in that area.
Used to see train loads of Fords in the sidings at Arkleston near Paisley. I often wondered how many of them made it to the dealerships with all their parts intact.
Some more shots, this time from the Giffnock area.
Masts for what I assume will be twin track cantilevers on the embankment between Church Road and Sutherland Drive bridges.
Large mast and cantilever at the end of the Giffnock platform extension.

Giffnock...
I was crossing Strawhill Road bridge this morning and could see lots of single track cantilever masts heading in the direction of Busby. Will get some photos next time I’m on foot.

Two large, poured foundations...
