Longcarse Junction

This was the junction north of Alloa Bridge between the Caledonian's Alloa goods station line (right) and their connection to the NBR's main line (left) giving access to Alloa staton. The junction later additionally served Weir Pumps (in the V of the junction) and a new curve on the left ran round to Alloa Marshalling Yard. After closure of the bridge the last use, until about 1980, was as a reversing spur for the line from the marshalling yard to the goods station.
