Description
This was a small goods yard on the west side of the line just north of Gorgie station and south of Gorgie Junction. It was approached from the north. On the west side of the yard was Gorgie East Minerals, a larger set of sidings for coal traffic. Further west again was the start of the Gorgie Cattle Market [NB], which crossed over a level crossing (as did the mineral yard sidings). Further beyond again was the headshunt for Gorgie Mills.
