Photographic notes
The road bridge crosses the lower lines to Cumbernauld and Glasgow Queen Street. To photograph the high lines you need to go under the nearby under bridge and turn left onto the playing fields.
The sun is best for trains from the west in the morning and from the east in the afternoon. After about 18:00 (in the spring and summer) the sun has gone around and is best from the far side of the bridge.
