Reinstatement of The PENICUIK to Edinburgh Railway Line

Penicuik was once served by three railways; the south by the Pencuik Railway, the north by the Edinburgh, Loanhead and Roslin Railway and the south was also poorly served by a distant station on the Peebles Railway.

The north could be served by re-opening the line from Loanhead to Glencorse although the trackbed is partly landscaped and a large viaduct is missing at Milton Bridge.

The south could be served by re-opening the line from Millerhill south to Dalkeith and then west and south to Rosewell and Penicuik. The route is intact except where it is crossed on the level by the Edinburgh Bypass just to the south of Millerhill and missing bridge over a new road just south west of Dalkeith.
