Thanks for uploading this great footage. It brings back good memories of when I was younger. I used to cycle up to Motherwell and Eastfield depots. I walked into Motherwell a few times and the guys were always happy to show you about. I was also in Eastfield a few times. Sad days now and with the way health and safety is they don't want you anywhere near.
