Now a year on, signs have appeared at both entrances. Presumably the “No” will be covered when a boat comes in – next one due tomorrow.
Unfortunately anyone hoping to pass through today would have found the west end completely barriered off – even though there was no boat and no unloading.
NOTE: This is NOT just for children (and parents) at Burntisland Primary School OR those receiving free school meals during term time.

The incomparable ‘historic document’ that is the model railway recreation of Burntisland’s original terminus station, docks and pioneering roll on roll off train ferry has won another award.
The layout has been gradually developed over the past fifteen years and is now almost finished.
One of the final buildings is the Roundhouse (recreated by Lindsay Galloway) which won a prize at last weekend’s Scalefour Society’s Scaleforum in Aylesbury. The whole layout won the best prize too! (It also won in 2005 when it was fairly new.)
The layout is expected to tour exhibitions for about another seven years. (It’s due to be on display in Burntisland again next year.)
And then? There is a possibility it will find a permanent home in the town. Perhaps it will form an important part of highlighting the varied and interesting history and heritage of Burntisland that the Heritage Centre does a great job of recording and highlighting.
The Roundhouse has a camera inside so visitors can see the turntable rotate
The only remaining trace of the Roundhouse is in the name “Roundhouse Carpark”.
“Thrilled to announce that we will be opening on 12 October 2019 at 135 High Street, Burntisland. Your Zero Waste Adventure Begins Here!”
