Jabez The train in the photo is between North Queensferry and Inverkeithing and has left the Forth Bridge and is heading North. Remember left hand running in the UK. An interesting point of detail. All bridges in Britain are numbered except that one. It is simply "The Bridge".

My near neighbour, Iain Brown, uses it in his excellant Gorse Gin (Lundin Distilling).

Here is a full report. https://www.theguardian....-which-arrive-hours-late But the passengers appear to have been happy displaying British stoicism All the passengers who spoke to the Guardian were, nonetheless, by and large delighted. The little things – such as butter, or a driver at Newcastle – will doubtless come. Jabez
