An eastbound Class 385 calls at Edinburgh Park on 22 July 2019. A delay in opening the doors causes one gentleman consternation and gives me a chance to rush back and grab a picture.

An Edinburgh service calls at Edinburgh Park on 22 July 2019. This station sees eight trains an hour each way with another four passing through. Its a station for commuting to rather than from as absolutely nobody lives near here. There are a couple of hotels nearby, but I don^t think even retired majors live in hotels any more (not Premier Inns, certainly).

A westbound service approaches Edinburgh Park on 22 July 2019 with the kenspeckle bulk of Arthur^s Seat in the background. Surrounded by an industrial estate, a retail park, a business park and absolutely no houses Edinburgh Park is a station you travel to, not from. Yes, I said kenspeckle. Shoot me now before I say ^anent^ or ^clanjamfrie^ and start writing letters to The Scotsman.
