The Corn Exchange is featured on the left of the image with a statue of Robert Burns also featured \u2013 both these structures are close to each other at the junction of Bernard Street\/Constitution Street. The connection with Alloway is that is where Burns was born.<\/p>\n<p>Onto <strong>269<\/strong> and this has a decidedly transport theme with an image of the Flying Scotsman steam locomotive alongside a modern Edinburgh Tram. The way the images are shown makes it look as it both the steam loco and tram are running along Princes Street!
