A group of over 40 knitters called the Selkirk Yarn Bombers, including one aged 104, have covered landmarks in Selkirk and Ettrickbridge with colourful knitted street art which has attracted visitors to admire their handiwork. It was done to promote the Yarrow, Ettrick and Selkirk Festival of Contemporary Arts. This creation representing the new Borders Railway is in Station Road.
