West Calder Branch Junction

Looking north along the trackbed of the former North British Railway freight only branch from the Seafield Oil Works near Blackburn, West Lothian, about to pass below this substantial bridge carrying the A7066 road over the line near the Boghall roundabout. Approximately 100 yards beyond the bridge the branch joined the Edinburgh & Bathgate Railway westbound at Bathgate East Junction. The branch closed in 1955 and the trackbed is now a walkway/cycleway.
