Blackford Hill

Green transport in a leafy suburb; the expected freightliner train in September 2018 turned out to be a double light engine movement to Millerhill. The train is approaching Overbridge 13 Oswald Road; this is located opposite the entrance to Blackford Pond. The view from the other side of the bridge was obstructed by overhanging vegetation and so is not to be recommended for observing/photographing trains moving towards Haymarket/Slateford or Millerhill/Waverley.
