Lingerwood Road Level Crossing
Looking north over Lingerwood Road, Newtongrange, in September 2019, with the houses of Lothian Terrace on the right. A level crossing existed here with the line from Lady Victoria and Lingerwood pits running between the the old brick gateposts (topped with the black ball finials) and on through the site currently occupied by the garage. The old trackbed beyond is today occupied by gardens and farmland, before becoming recognisable once more between Sixth and Eighth Streets. The parallel Easthouses Tramway passed below the same road some 50 yards off to the right 72194.
