Kirkcaldy Harbour

The Kirkcaldy Harbour branch, which closed in 1984, had an Alton Towers gradient of 1 in 21.  Here is the course of the branch on 12 February looking downhill towards the harbour.  The gradient is noticeable even on foot.  No these aren't rails but a twin row of concrete kerbstones without a kerb.  I can't explain that one.
