The Railways of Kinross were a local network of three rural railways which made the town of Kinross in Scotland their objective in the 1859s. They were * the Fife and Kinross Railway from Ladybank to Kinross; * the Kinross-shire Railway from near Cowdenbeath to Kinross; and * the Devon Valley Railway from Tillicoultry to Kinross, although the last-named was not completed until 1872. These single-track rural lines became part of the main line network when the first Tay Bridge was opened in 1878, and then the Forth Bridge in 1890. For the Forth Bridge route two new sections of route were constructed, a cut-off line near Cowdenbeath, and the Glenfarg line connecting Mawcarse and Bridge of Earn, near Perth. All the local passenger services were discontinued by 1964, and the through Glenfarg route to Perth closed in 1970. ==History== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Railways of Kinross」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
