Despite its status of the Capital of Scotland, Edinburgh has always played second fiddle to Glasgow in the size and complexity of it's railway network.  Following the Beeching Cuts of the 1960's, Edinburgh was for a while left with only three passenger stations, Waverley, Haymarket and Slateford, fewer than some smaller provincial towns such as Coatbridge and Paisley.  Some regeneration has taken place with the opening of new stations at South Gyle and Mussleburgh, but large scale projects such as the reopening of the Edinburgh Suburban Line have yet to get past the planning stages.  This in a city choked with traffic, which plays host to the new Scottish Parliament .
My photographic experiences in and around  the city  have been limited to the following locations.  Either click on the map above, or on a thumbnail photograph to go to the gallery.
