A reminder of the railway

Image: © Richard Sutcliffe Taken: 16 Nov 2022

A small part of the wall of the old railway bridge over Kilsyth Road. The bridge carried the Campsie Branch of the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway, which ran from Lenzie to Lennoxtown. The line opened in 1848 and finally closed in 1966. Today a footpath runs along the old trackbed to Lennoxtown and then along the Strathblane Railway path.
