East Old Dock [Leith]

The NBR had a connection with the western docks at Leith through a line which left its North Leith branch before the passenger terminus. The line is just visible on the left of the 1964 railtour photographed at the terminus see image 23432. It crossed Commercial Street on the level then split three ways. The eastern curve has been preserved in the cobbles of the revitalised former dockside (on the middle distant left). Closer to the camera is a bonded warehouse siding, actually a re-alignment of the original course of the siding. View looks west.
