I am standing on the former Glencorse branch, a few hundred metres from the junction and looking towards Glencorse. All that is left of the branch is a moribund headshunt behind me. The rails were lifted here some years ago, but remained in place further west more recently (though they were stranded). A railway path was opened west from Shawfair hospital and through Gilmerton earlier this year, but this stretch obviously wasn't though worthy - yet? A road and the Borders line would have to be bridged
to take it to Millerhill.
