A Glaswegian radio disc jockey gets mixed up in a local ice cream trade war

This comedy was filmed on location in Glasgow, and in the background of one shot there is quite a rare glimpse of a named split-headcode Class 37 on a short engineer’s train that includes a crane. This was filmed overlooking Arrochar Street, Summerston.

The Class 37 on a short engineer’s train likely passed by in the background to this scene purely by accident. The crane is immediately behind the locomotive and it makes an interesting change to a passenger train.
