I was in Edinburgh on Friday, on one of my occasional days out by steam train. Wandering about in the rain, wondering why noone was celebrating St Georges day , I took this picture of a statue with the castle in the background. Despite searching Google, I have no idea who this is a statue of, but I'm sure one of our Scottish members will know.

Cheers, I knew someone here would know / do better than me at finding it on Google.
Here's our engine at Edinburgh Waverley, 70013 Oliver Cromwell...
I took time out to get a local train to North Queensferry, so I could go over the Forth Rail Bridge for the first time.
This is the booking hall roof at the station, a Costa Coffee is now underneath it.
Finally, a shot of the engine, taken from the back of the train as we went round the curve at Carstairs.

your quite the photographericery type, nice work. that first shot would look really good if you could run it though cs4 and get some depth out of it, bring the clouds out, the colors are in there just hiding. But nicely clicked all the same mate. |

@ Roy
Glad you were able to negotiate Princes Street in spite of trams, roadworks and general mayhem.
What did you think of going over the bridge into the Kingdom of Fife?
The road bridge gives me the heebie jeebies, not so much on the rail, perhaps because it feels more .
PSthe sun was seen first thing this morning
We're back to normal dreich now |

Hi Nanny O, I was wondering where you were. As we passed over the Forth it did start raining. I was taking snaps out through the train windows (as they didnt open, unlike my steam train), though they didnt come to much, this one amused me as I caught a dangling bridge worker by accident:
I managed Prices St OK, but nearly fell over as I walked down wet stones into the park. This statue is called 'Man With Bird On Head'. The bird was very lifelike
Finally, those interested in steam locos maight like to know that the group who built the brand new A1 class loco 'Tornado' are looking into building a replica of its larger cousin, the legendary P2 Mikado 2-8-2. The most powerful locos built in the UK (actually for the Edinburgh - Aberdeen expresses, which went over the Forth Bridge), and in my book the best looking, all 6 were rebuilt after the War into short ugly engines.
I can't wait, though the last one took 20 years and £3.5 Million. |

Great pics Roy. The train journey from London to Edinburgh is a holiday on its own. Especially the last fifty miles along the east coast.
I recommend the camera obscurer just down from the castle. The lively commentaries and infors on folk they recognise as they swivel the lens around the city were hilarious. |
