Frame No. 2516 dates is said to date from 1937 though by the frame number, it is likely it was built in 1936. Part of the collection at the Museum of Transport in Glasgow, it retains much of it's original equipment and patina. Whilst on one hand this is fortunate, on the other hand it is in very poor condition and has gained many additional marks from poor handling over the years. At some point, the original brake blocks have been substituted for a modern pattern which look somewhat out of place on such an old machine. As the Museum holds perhaps one of the earliest Scot's in existence this is a prime candidate for a professional restoration and replacement of the correct components.
