Rail bosses have been accused of 'betraying' customers after they axed a commuter service taking passengers across the city. From today trains will no longer run between the 'park and ride' site at Newcraighall near Musselburgh and Edinburgh Park at the Gyle. Passengers will instead have to travel to Waverley before getting another train out to the business park.

An eastbound Class 385 calls at Edinburgh Park on 22 July 2019. A delay in opening the doors causes one gentleman consternation and gives me a chance to rush back and grab a picture.

An Edinburgh service calls at Edinburgh Park on 22 July 2019. This station sees eight trains an hour each way with another four passing through. Its a station for commuting to rather than from as absolutely nobody lives near here. There are a couple of hotels nearby, but I don^t think even retired majors live in hotels any more (not Premier Inns, certainly).

A westbound service approaches Edinburgh Park on 22 July 2019 with the kenspeckle bulk of Arthur^s Seat in the background. Surrounded by an industrial estate, a retail park, a business park and absolutely no houses Edinburgh Park is a station you travel to, not from. Yes, I said kenspeckle. Shoot me now before I say ^anent^ or ^clanjamfrie^ and start writing letters to The Scotsman.
