DEPARTS:

  • Edinburgh Waverley

Join us on this rare and beautiful trip through Fife and along the Firth of Forth featuring a journey over one of the great railway engineering masterpieces of the world, The Forth Bridge.

This tour departs Edinburgh Waverley and takes us over the towering structure of the Forth Bridge, with striking views across to the road bridge and out to sea. We will then head in to Fife and make our way along the coast towards Kirkcaldy, passing the Castle and beach at Aberdour and the beaches at Burntisland and Kinghorn, before turning back inland via Dunfermline.

The train will then head along the Forth Estuary onto a rarely used goods only line which has stunning views. This part of the route takes us along more than 5 miles of coastline, while passing the historic village of Culross and the edge of Torry Bay Local Nature Reserve. We then pass through Alloa and along the reopened route to Stirling, looping round the Western end of the estuary. Having crossed the Forth River at Stirling we head south through Falkirk, before arriving back into Edinburgh Waverley.
