We are considering traveling to Scotland to visit the Lockerbie Disaster Memorial near Dumfries. Is it feasible to get there from Edinburgh by train or would it be better to rent a car? Thanks.
Christina, A quick visit to the National Rail site shows that Edinburgh (Waverly) station to Dumfries is 2 hours with a change in Carlisle. It looks as if Lockerbie and the memorial is actually closer to Glascow - you may want to fly into there.
There are plaques scattered around the village of Lockerbie. The main memorial is about a mile to the west at Dryfesdale Cemetery. Lockerbie has a train station around which I've seen a couple of taxis. I've not used them or the train.
