As well as its Fife Circle services Cowdenbeath is the terminus of an hourly train from Edinburgh during the day. Trains arrive and depart from the 'right' platforms which, as the crossover is at the 'wrong' side of the station makes things slightly awkward and the crew have to change ends three times during each visit. Here on 14 April 170 471 performs the middle manoeuvre, running wrong line into the southbound platform. Note the black eye effect of using FSR coloured spares on an SPT liveried set.
