This is near the foot of the ramp down from Newhaven terminus which is only a few hundred yards behind the photographer. We’re looking towards Ocean Terminal Shopping Centre and the city bound track is on the left with the Newhaven bound track on the right. Road traffic will continue to operate either side of the tracks. The cruise ship is “Sirena” which was built in France in 1999 and after operating under several names received this one when Oceania Cruises acquired it in 2016. The low building in front of the ship’s bow is the cruise liner terminal, offices for an advertising agency and Forth Ports Leith, it was originally a visitor centre for the Royal Yacht Britannia.
