Cockenzie Harbour

Stone block sleepers on the quayside at Cockenzie Harbour showing where the rail chairs had been fixed at a gauge of 3' 3'. These probably date from 1815, with iron rails first being used from then. The waggonway is approaching its Tercentenary and an archaeological 'Big Dig' was under way when this image was taken.
