Hardengreen Viaduct

ScotRail 158728+158719+158729, forming a 6-car southbound Sunday morning service on the Borders Railway, photographed crossing Hardengreen Viaduct on 16 January 2022. The modern viaduct links sections of the old Waverley Route, which had been breached during realignment of the A7 in the late 1990s. Coincidently, the footbridge visible in the right background also links sections of the trackbed of a railway route breached by the realigned A7, in this case the former Peebles Railway. The two lines once met less than half a mile north east of here at Hardengreen Junction. (See image 17896).
