Stadler has just weeks to find reuses for Glasgow subway cars

Last-minute efforts are under way to rescue up to a dozen redundant Glasgow Subway ‘Clockwork Orange’ cars for re-use as holiday accommodation, a school classroom, and even a private sauna.

Would-be purchasers of more vehicles have only a few days to express interest and complete deals, because replacement fleet supplier Stadler wants to fulfil its contract to clear the depot yard at Broomloan Road depot (between Govan and Ibrox stations). It has set a deadline of August 31.
