We decide to explore the Borders using this new line, and a convenient connection allows us to head back North on the 08:49 Scotrail service back towards the capital. We alight at Newtongrange, hoping to have a chance to visit the National Mining Museum. The time is now 09:18 on Sunday morning.

Actually Paul, sorry, I've just worked out which one it is. It's New Swanston. Also, there is no need for you to cancel a move altogether if ever you make a mistake. Just correct it otherwise we have to back track
From Swanston (or what appears to be Hunter's Tryst), we then board the 1223 Lothian Buses service 4 to The Jewel (Asda), arriving there at 1326 on Sunday afternoon.

I really must take far more care with my future postings on this quiz with regards to the supply of concise and full information. Therefore, to continue onwards......
We next board the 1332 Lothian Buses service 4 to Slateford railway station that arrives there at 1424 on Sunday afternoon.
