Two days later the empty pipe trains disturbs the peace of Newburgh with 66159 at the head. I made a comment to a local resident about the noise of the train, he said the loaded train is even noisier.
Markinch station is the setting for the loaded pipes heading north behind 66159. On arrival at Inverness a pair of class 37's take the train on to Georgemas Junction as the Far North Line isn't passed for class 66's. 24/2/2000
A return to Newburgh is made to capture 66193 passing the remains of Newburgh station which closed on 19/9/1955. The signalbox and loop lasted longer, not closing until the 1970's. The 'box has since been demolished. 26/2/2000
