The train is passing the site of two old collieries, Silverton Colliery was on the left of the railway and the line to Barncluith Colliery branched off to the right towards the camera. The train is the 14.17 from Cumbernauld to Dalmuir but because of the adverse weather the train started at Motherwell.
