Scotland

England

It's 4am, do you know where your programmers are? Well one of them is on a train going from London's Gatwick airport to Kings Cross Station.

Kings Cross Station

It's around 5:30am when I arive at Kings Cross. This is the major train station for all trains leaving London. And it was the site of one of the July 7th bombing. Here's hoping lightning doesing strike in the same place twice.

Where's my train?

Okay, I'm looking for the train to Edinburgh. Let's just consult the giant board...
Looking down the tracks

The train has arived!

Sunrise

I've been riding in the dark for about an hour, maybe an hour and a half. Then finally....daybreak!

Last England Rail Stop

Early morning shot of Berwick-upon-Tweed, the last stop in England, then I enter Scotland.

Edinburgh - Waverley Railway Station

I've reached Edinburgh. This is a shot inside the Waverley Railway Station. It covers a good three city blocks. To protect from the rain, the whole area is covered over, although all the entrances are open air. You're looking up the ramp that cars and taxis enter and leave the station. Open air is convenient for both the people and the pigeons that live in the station. Ahhh...the pigeons.

Welcome to Edinburgh

Stepping out of the railway station and onto Market Street. Hey, wow. They really do drive on the wrong side of the road here.
