A view across the buffers at Queen Street on 28 October (Platform 1 is much shorter so deeply reset). Between Platforms 2 and 3 stands the preserved 1842 Edinburgh & Glasgow Railway 1842 milepost - easily dateable as they show the distance to Haymarket (then called Edinburgh) which is one and a quarter miles short of Waverley and was the terminus for only two years. At least 3 of these are still in situ; remarkable to
think they have been there since Queen Victoria (God bless her) was only 23 years old and have been wrong since she was 25! See image 5245
