Old Photograph LNER Class M2 Steam Train St Margaret's Railway Depot Meadowbank Edinburgh Scotland

Old photograph of a London and North Eastern Railway Class M2 steam train in St Margaret's Railway Depot in Edinburgh, Scotland. The first engine shed, a roundhouse, and the workshops comprising St. Margaret's, were built atop a historic well by the North British Railway in 1845. Mainly associated over the following years with the movement of coal and general freight traffic, the depot was never to match its close Edinburgh Haymarket neighbour in glamour of any form.
