RAF Leuchars

Looking south west across the A919 towards Leuchars North Junction in April 2011 from the boundary with RAF Leuchars. The main line runs just beyond the vegetation and Leuchars station is a few hundred yards to the left.  Behind the camera is a fence and MOD property and, of course, unwise to photograph without permission but it's safe to report that if this view gives the impression that there's lots of track behind the camera then it's illusory as there's none at all!  This was the start of the Tayport Loop which lost its passenger services through Leuchars (Old) station as long ago as 1921, though the connection with RAF Leuchars survived until the early 1990s.
