Looking west from Halbeath level crossing in June 2006 towards Queen Margaret station, the platforms of which can just be seen beyond the bridge in the distance. In the siding nearest is a loaded coal train from Hunterston, recently arrived via the Forth Bridge, with its class 66 locomotive having just completed a run-round manoeuvre. The train is now awaiting signals before departing for Longannet power station via Charlestown Junction. The empty train on the far right is on the reverse journey.
