Portobello Bottle Works

Portobello Bottle Works (1829-1968) was situated across the road from Baileyfield Switch and Crossing Works (still there) but had a separate connection with the main line. A fragment of the track remains embedded here in the car park of an abandoned car dealership. Edinphoto.org.uk has a photo of a train on the branch in 1959.
