==Transport== [[File:Musselburgh from the air (geograph 2208866).jpg|thumb|Musselburgh from the air (winter)]] [[File:Musselburgh from the air (geograph 3467176).jpg|thumb|Musselburgh from the air (summer)]] ===Railway=== Musselburgh is served by two railway stations. [[Musselburgh railway station]] is in the west of the town adjacent to Queen Margaret University and has regular [[ScotRail]] services from {{Stnlnk|Edinburgh Waverley}} to {{Stnlnk|North Berwick}}. It is a relatively new station, having opened in 1988. The other station serving the town is [[Wallyford railway station]] to the east of the town in the village of [[Wallyford]], which opened in 1994. The town's [[Musselburgh railway station (1847)|original station]] was close to the town centre at the end of a short branch from Newhailes Junction. Passenger services from there ceased in 1964, and the line closed to all traffic in the early 1970s. The former railway line is now a road bypassing the [[Fisherrow]] area of the town. There was also [[Fisherrow railway station|a station]] at Fisherrow. ===Bus=== The town is served by [[Lothian Buses]], [[East Coast Buses]] and Prentice Coaches Ltd.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://prenticeofhaddington.info/services.html|title=Timetables - Prentice of Haddington|website=prenticeofhaddington.info}}</ref> ===Roads=== The [[A1 road (Great Britain)|A1]] by-passes the town and meets the [[Edinburgh City Bypass|A720 Edinburgh City Bypass]] at the edge of the town before continuing to Edinburgh city centre. The A199 goes through the High Street to [[Edinburgh]] in the west and to [[Dunbar]] to the east. This was originally the [[A1 road (Great Britain)|A1]] until the town's bypass was built in the mid-1980s.
