Loco(s) Route

60532 Perth - ?Hilton Jn - Ladybank - Thornton North Jn - ??? - Inverkeithing - Dalmeny - Haymarket? - Edinburgh Waverley
????? Edinburgh Waverley - ?(via ECML)? - Newcastle

Notes :
(1) Martin Green comments: The tour ran from Carlisle via the G&SW (photographed at Kilmarnock) and then to Perth [before heading to Edinburgh Waverley]. I am afraid I don't recall the rest of the route nor the motive power to Carlisle or from Edinburgh, though we did cross the Forth Bridge in broad daylight.
