Walkerburn

One of the most remarkable survivors from the heyday of the British railway branch line is the ubiquitous 'former goods shed'. Still seen throughout the country in various guises it appears almost indestructible (apart from the roof). This one was photographed in October 2005 looking south across the River Tweed towards the old goods yard at Walkerburn on the Peebles loop - nice roof!
