              History 
              
              Eastfield Terminus is situated beside the Firth of Forth at 
              Joppa, close to the eastern end of Portobello Promenade. 
              This has been an Edinburgh bus terminus for many years.  
              Here are buses on routes 26 and 44 waiting at the terminus in the 
              early 1970s.  Now both routes continue further east into East 
              Lothian.

              In the photo at the top of this page, an open-top bus, 
              carrying members of the Edinburgh Transport Group, has stopped for 
              a photo stop at the terminus.  It is facing to the west, 
              towards the sun. 
              Normally, the buses 
              using this terminus stop, facing to the east, at the pavement 
              beside the Firth of Forth. 
              Members of the 
              Edinburgh  Transport Group enjoy the sun and sea breeze 
              during this short stop.  |
