First Generation Scottish DMUs
From the mid-1950s diesel multiple units began to appear in Scotland, firstly on the main line between Edinburgh and Glasgow Queen Street and later on many secondary lines. Possibly the ultimate in the DMU development was the InterCity DMU, later numbered as Class 126. More DMU units began to appear from the early 1960s with the gradual withdrawal of steam locomotives.

Howat covers virtually the whole of Scotland and encompasses locations from Arbroath in the north to just south of the border in Carlisle. This book covers diesel multiple units from Metro-Cammell Class 101s up to and including Swindon InterCity Class
