The railway that isn't there... by Ron Evers


 
 

These were the biggest engineering works on the line, besides the Forth Bridge. They were cut through clay and after a lot of rain the line in the cuttings got out of alignment and a careful watch had to be kept on this part of the track. The cuttings are still visible today, their sides clothed with primroses in the spring.
