    This is nice. And it is a real pity we cannot ‘hang around’ there any more, as I see housing is going up and the park-like area where one could relax in the evening will soon be history.

    Stunning. Classic Ayr. Like Arnold said, this area is practically a suburb already

    Excellent! This used to be my favourite spot to railfan. Very relaxing there. @awmooney: Haven’t seen the scene there recently but last time I was there, it’s not looking good :(
