A few "Works Cars" in the GCT fleet were decorated for exhibitions, the X-ray campaign, and other civic amenities. Car 50 was built in 1930, with a Brill/GCT 21E truck.
Unusually it had no air brakes. A depot fire at Newlands on 11/4/1948 destroyed this car among others and it was scrapped in 1950.
Kelvin Hall has undergone many transformations and today houses a sports centre and the home of the Scottish Film Archive.
