25th Nov 2009Walking the Bed: Shankend to Whitrope tunnel
On 31 January 2006, a trip with the erstwhile Whitrope Wull to Shankend to see how far we could walk on the old Waverley trackbed. With the area as desolate now as it ever was, the bitter winter's day added to the atmosphere.
23rd Nov 2009DMUs on the Bathgate branch
When it became clear work was due to commence on the Airdrie - Bathgate project, I decided I'd better attempt to take a few shots of the day to day scene before the overhead wires arrived and did what they've done elsewhere - ruin the shot...

These are a selection of the results obtained in decent conditions - they also show some of the changes as the works continued.

Welcome
Welcome to Scottish Railpics

An online archive of material taken lineside within the last five or so years.

Collections

Collections are ordered by location - this makes it far easier to select material than doing so via date and traction type etc, given that my archive is ordered primarily by location.

Images shall be updated as time allows.

Queries on any of the images are most welcome.
