Edinburgh Waverley always had a great atmosphere in the 70s and 80s with the strong smell of diesel coming from spluttering class 27s and on warm summer days there seemed to be a permanent blue haze under the massive glass roof. All that sadly disappeared in the 90s with units, electrics and non loco hauled trains. I'm just old enough to have some memories of Deltics moving light-engine to and from Haymarket depot through Princes St gardens to the west of the station.
