Woman takes picture of Forth Bridge ghost
A TOURIST who had braved Edinburgh's spooky Mary King's Close reckons she came face to face with her own ghostly vision on the train home!
Twenty-year-old Vicky Parr, from keith, Morayshire, was down in Edinburgh visiting family and enjoyed a day out at the popular attraction.
Back on the train for home, Vicky decided to take some snaps of the Forth Bridge as the train was crossing but got a shock when she saw what she had taken.
Vicky thinks the ghost of a woman or teenage girl can be seen clearly left of centre in the photograph.
What do you think?
Have your say. Post a comment on this article.

Report commentLooks like a reflection from someone on the train.... Could also be an accidental double exposure (if it was a film camera). Ghosts aren't allowed on the bridge so it can't be a ghost.

Report commentIt's very probably an actual person. I'm willing to bet that the painters on the bridge wear protective suits because the flakes of paint that are sand blasted off can be toxic. That is the reason the areas they work on are sealed in tarpaulin because there was a worry they are carcinogenic (sp) and they would blow/fall into peoples gardens below.
A ghost. Pfft.
