Scottish focal points   
Hi all, further to my post over my scottish trip i was wondering in the 
glasgow / motherwell / edinburgh areas if anyone can recommend places to 
check out for shunters and locos, sidings and yards etc outside of the major 
depots and stations?

TIA

Edinburgh:
* Millerhill - various locos and a couple of shunters
* Slateford - Engineering sidings
* Haymarket - Sprinter depot with lots of units
* Craigentinny - HSTs, 225s, Voyagers, couple of shunters, possibly the 
Royal Scotsman

Motherwell:
* TMD with assorted locos
* Mossend Yard
* Coatbridge Freighliner Terminal

Glasgow:
* Shields EMD
* Yoker Carriage Sidings
* Eastfield Depot
* Deanside Distribution (four or five 08s I think)
