Item: Waverley Station, Edinburgh
Location: Waverley Station, Princes Street, Edinburgh, Scotland

Item: State Railway of India
Location: India

Review: It is said that the Edinburgh to Glasgow – and the Glasgow to Edinburgh - train-line is the busiest in Europe. I don’t know about that. If it’s true, it’s strange that it should be in one of the smaller countries in northern […]
