Brush Type 4 No. 1545 has rather beaten the camera as it accelerates off the Royal Border Bridge and past the junction with the Kelso line (still in the process of being dismantled) at Tweedmouth on Saturday 19th September 1970. 1E15 was a dated SO relief to the 10:30 Aberdeen - Kings Cross, departing Edinburgh 15 minutes ahead of it at 13:45, and should have run for the last time a fortnight earlier, but has been reinstated in anticipation of heavy traffic in connection with the Edinburgh Festival.
