Notes
Latterly sat on 27027’s bogies at Millerhill, having been swapped at Glasgow Works.
26019 was unusal in having sliding windows on the driver’s sides 1 and 2 end, and drop windows on the secondman’s. This was presumably to do with the tablet-catching equipment recess.
Liveries
Original green; green plus small yellow warning panel; BR blue
