Looking East

This photo was taken following a heavy snowfall in December 2009, from the bridge beside the scout hut in South Trinity Road

This view looks to the east, towards Leith, along route of the former Caledonian railway line that used to run Princes Street Station to Leith.  The line is now part of the network of footpaths and cycle paths in the north of Edinburgh.

In recent years it has also been used as part of the Edinburgh Marathon Route for runners returning from Silverknowes towards Leith.

Looking West

Here is another view taken on the same morning, looking in the opposite direction from bridge in South Trinity Road.
