[Railway] ClerK (Trace 6) James Coke Stat: [Station] Master Holytown Adopted on Plans of the adjoining Parishes, | 012.05 | The name "Wishaw & Coltness Section" of the Caledonian Railway applies to that part of the Caledonian property between Whifflet, in Old Monkland Parish, and Morningside, in the Parish of Cam'nethan, [Cambusnethan] but, in Railway Time Tables, it is commonly called Caledonian Railway only. A new line or deviation from this Railway for Passenger Traffic, commencing near "Fullwood", Trace 6 of this Plan, was opened about two years ago on account of the Wooden Viaduct at "Camp", Traces 3 & 6 of xii-9, being condemned. The line which becomes a single pair of Rails at the condemned Viaduct is still used for minerals, and the name retained to it as before the deviation was made. The Electric Telegraph is also continued on the condemned line to the Motherwell Station, in Dalziel, where the new deviation, along with the "Clydesdale Junction Railway," joins it again. The new line or deviation, commonly called the "New Deviation", written upon Trace 6 of this Plan |
