At the south end of this station, on the right in the distance across the intervening road, is the bus station labelled as Galashiels Interchange and offering onward transportation to now railway-less towns like Peebles, Selkirk, Melrose and Hawick. However, there is no direct interchange between this and the rail station, passengers having to cross the road on the level to get from one to the other. 20/20</p><p>17/06/2022<br><small><a href='/contributors/David_Bosher'>David Bosher</a></small></p>
