Burghlee Ground Frame
The northern extent of the wasteland once occupied by the the sidings of Bilston Glen Colliery, seen here in 2007. Trains serving the colliery used the former EL&R route, now a surfaced public walkway running towards Loanhead in the distance. The colliery was officially closed in 1989, with the last train leaving the sidings carrying stockpiled coal for Cockenzie power station two years later.
