Niddrie West Junction

Scene at Niddrie West Junction on 31 May 2018 following a major subsidence problem linked to old mine workings in the area. View is west towards the junction from the footbridge, with the main works taking place behind the camera (see image 64285). Notice all three lines are closed at this stage. The last of the work at the site had been completed by mid July, including the installation of trackbed monitoring equipment to aid detection of any future movement (see image 65968).
