Date: 23rd August 1980

On 23rd August 1980 the BLS “Lothian & Fife Wanderer” covered a number of freight lines around Edinburgh and Fife, formed of 3 car Met Camm set 50243 + 59067 + 51224. I did not travel on this but chose to take some photos on the Granton branch, sadly only with a Kodak Instamatic. A little later that day, the tour passes through Abbeyhill station on the loop line to Piershill approaching what was originally a three way junction, left for Granton, straight ahead for Leith Central, right for Piershill and back to the ECML. This line was used for the Commonwealth Games shuttle to Meadowbank in 1986 but then disconnected when the ECML was electrified, although the tracks remain in place. Abbeyhill station was closed in 1964 with others on the route to the original Musselburgh terminus. Murray Liston.

On 23rd August 1980 the BLS “Lothian & Fife Wanderer” covered a number of freight lines around Edinburgh and Fife, formed of 3 car Met Camm set 50243 + 59067 + 51224. I did not travel on this but chose to take some photos on the Granton branch, sadly only with a Kodak Instamatic. Heading south again, the tour passes through Trinity tunnel, and approaches Trinity Junction. The original line behind the photographer leads to Scotland St, used by trains from Edinburgh to Granton where they would have boarded the world’s first train ferry to Burntisland. The train will however follow the diversionary route via Powderhall opened in 1868 to allow Scotland St tunnel to be closed. This location is almost unrecognisable these days, being the “five ways” junction of cyclepaths which radiate along each of the former lines here. Murray Liston.

I did not travel on this but chose to take some photos on the Granton branch, sadly only with a Kodak Instamatic. After passing over West Harbour Road, the railtour heads uphill towards the oil terminal, over one of the few pieces of track joining the former North British and Caledonian systems in the city. On the left is the former Caledonian Railway goods depot, still in use today by William Waugh as a scrap recycler and which used to generate trainloads of scrap metal until the early 1970s.

Looking towards the station at Cosford from the road bridge a short way to the west of the station this image shows ex-Strathclyde class 101 T076 (53241 + 51224) working a Shrewsbury to Wolverhampton train on 29 November 1991. The shot looking towards Shrewsbury is equally interesting with a nice bracket signal but at this time of the year the cutting is too heavily shadowed for a picture on a sunny day. Peter Tandy.
