Bowland
Looking south across bridge no 80 on the former Waverley route towards the sparse remains of Bowland station in 2012. This quiet backwater had closed to passengers in 1953, although the bridge itself continued to be used for a further 60 years, the last 40 or so by the local farmer. The end came in 2013 when the structure was demolished and replaced as part of the Borders Railway project (see 43480).
