No. 1112 was an 8 wheel 'Standard Double Bogie' (aka 'Kilmarnock bogie') car with a Hurst Nelson body seating 28/40, running on Kilmarnock Engineering Co. maximum traction bogies, and going into service Jan 1929. The fitting of the electrics, trucks, etc., was done by GCT at its Coplawhill Car Works, it was scrapped in Dec 1960, being dismantled back at Coplawhill.

The parts of the Glasgow tramways systems that had not already been withdrawn or transferred to trolleybus/bus operation closed in Sep 1962.
