Rolling stock

The current rolling stock operating the North Clyde Lines are Class 320s, Class 318 and Class 334.

Previous operations

From the 1960s after electrification by British Railways, both Class 311s and Class 303s operated the North Clyde Lines. During a fleet cascade it was common to find a Class 314, Class 311 or Class 303. During the 1990s the Class 320s were introduced to the North Clyde Lines. The Class 311s were then withdrawn and both Class 303s and 320s operated together until 2002 when the final Class 303 unit was withdrawn. The Class 334s then entered service. Initially, the units were set for the Ayrshire Lines but they operated the North Clyde lines during peak-hour times.
