Haymarket Tunnels

Haymarket North tunnel, mostly used by services on the Forth Bridge line, is currently closed at weekends to allow installation of overhead wires which the South tunnel has had for nearly 20 years. On Saturdays at least this means local services from Fife are terminating at Haymarket and there are some alterations to other services. This view is taken from Platform 1 at Haymarket looking towards Waverley. Not sure what the curtain is for; do the workers put on a show at the end of the day?
