Accelerating Through Inverkeithing

The driver of an early morning northbound train opens the throttle in Inverkeithing station. In the far distance beyond the houses the top of the Forth Bridge is visible. The track diverging from the main line on the left is the Rosyth Dockyard branch. The bridge that the train has just passed under carries Boreland Road. The station was undergoing an upgrade to its lighting when this image was taken - one of the existing lights with the station name stands alongside one of the new lights and a stack of more new lights awaiting erection.
