Powderhall Loop

If I hadn't photographed it myself a fortnight previously I might not have believed that the rails here had been lifted in order to dig a hole. The hole is now filled in and the rails replaced. This would be unremarkable, but the line is disused… View looks south towards Leith Walk. The engine release loop is nearest the camera.
