Cowdenbeath North Junction
A Fife Circle train is seen passing north through Cowdenbeath North Junction. The view looks south. The line off to the left is the 1919 Cowdenbeath North Junction to Lumphinnans Junction connection. On the right is the closed Cowdenbeath to Kelty line of 1890. It closed as a through route to Perth in 1970, was reduced to a single track and closed altogether in 1972 with the closure of Kelty Coup. The train is coming off the remaining part of the line opened in 1890 from Cowdenbeath South Junction to Kelty. The Forth Bridge can be seen in the distance at the top of the photograph.
