The railway to Kincardine and Dunfermline
This section of line went out of use in 1979 but was rebuilt in 2008 to allow coal imported through Hunterston to access Longannet power station without using the Forth Rail Bridge at Queensferry. Since the closure of Longannet powerstation in 2016 the line has seen only occasional use. Hopes of resurrecting a passenger service have not, as yet, been developed into firm proposals.

These crossing barriers will never rise again
The dashed white line heading straight into a high metal palisade fence is an indication that until a few months before the photograph was taken this part of Hilton Road led straight through to the main road east out of Alloa towards Fife; indeed, the road direction sign is still in position at the junction in the distance. Part of the costs quoted for the re-opening of the Alloa to Kincardine railway for coal trains to Longannet power station was for a new road crossing the railway on a bridge about half a mile to the east. This allowed the former level crossing in Hilton Road to be closed to vehicles. It had been the intention to provide a footbridge across the railway here for pedestrians but local residents said they didn't want one, preferring to use their cars to drive the long way round to the main road.

Railway and Hilton Road
There used to be a level crossing here and Hilton Road was the B909, but a bypass has been built and the crossing has been abolished (even for pedestrians).
