Gorgie East

Looking north towards the bridge over Gorgie Road carrying the Edinburgh South Suburban Line, on 20th July 2017. The line closed to passengers in 1962 but survives for freight and occasional passenger diversions and has been the subject of much speculation regarding a reopening to passengers in recent years but so far to no effect. Gorgie East station, opened in 1884 as Gorgie and renamed in 1952, was on the embankment on the right.
