Peter Purves heads down to what would become (when the new stock arrived) known as the "clockwork orange") to take a look behind the scenes. He pokes his head out of the side and they abandon a cameraman in the tunnel, to the fascination of the passengers.
I met Perves once, and he was really nice. Happy to chat to a couple of cub scouts helping out at a Guide Dogs for the Blind event. A marked contrast to Barbara Woodhouse on the same day...

If ever there was a candidate for a OO Gauge Train Set then the Glasgow Subway would be it...
- Train 2 Carriages (or rather cars) long
- Continuos uninterrupted round and round loop.
- Track gauge 4 feet = 16 mm in 4 mm scale - so almost correct with 16.5mm track...
I suppose it would be a prototype - the stock being lifted on and off, and no points to deal with!
Old TT gauge even better!
