Looking forward to a trip with my son tomorrow to the picturesque village of East Linton

It’s not that far from Edinburgh (only about half an hour on the train), but I’ve only been there once before …

… mainly because there hasn’t been a station in East Linton since the Beeching axe fell in 1964

But there is one now, and we’ll be on the first train to call there! 🚂

It’s today now, so I’d better get moving – at an unearthly hour for me!

(Don’t forget your meds! )

@transponderings will do!

(sorry, I’m not wearing a mask. I recovered from covid in September so I should be *reasonably* safe but if you’d like to avoid contact, that’s fair)
