Perth
A selection of photographs taken around Perth railway station.  The junction seperates the Glasgow to Aberdeen line from the Glasgow to Inverness line.  To the south of the station there is another junction where a single track takes the railway across to Ladybank and Fife for direct trains to Edinburgh.
