Paisley Gilmour Street rail accident
The Paisley Gilmour Street rail accident occurred on 16 April 1979 at 19:50. The 19:40 Inverclyde Line service from Glasgow Central to Wemyss Bay, operated by two Class 303 trains, crossed from the Down Fast Line to the Down Gourock Line under clear signals at Wallneuk Junction immediately to the east of Paisley Gilmour Street railway station. It collided head-on with the 18:58 Ayrshire Coast Line special service from Ayr to Glasgow Central, formed of two Class 126 diesel multiple units, which had left Platform 2 against a red signal P31.
==Factors==
The DMU had started away from the platform with the signal at Red. A type of SPAD (signal passed at danger) accident known as ding-ding, and away. This accident prompted British Rail to change the Rules so that the bell or "Right Away" signal is only given when the Starting signal has been cleared.〔Hall (1999). Chapter 6: Hidden Dangers: Single Lead Junctions〕
Both drivers and five passengers were killed. 67 passengers and the guard of the Class 303 were injured and were taken to hospital.〔DoT Official Accident Report.〕 Only three of these remained in hospital.〔
