The Colinton Tunnel was completed in 1874 as part of the construction of the Balerno Branch Line, running from Slateford to Balerno and connecting Balerno and all of the villages and mills along the line directly to Edinburgh’s Princes Street Station. Now a cycle path and walkway. The tunnel has a 140m long mural depicting RL Stevenson's poem - ‘From a Railway Carriage’.
