Network Rail have found a novel way to teach children about rail safety.
Children from Langlee Primary in Galashiels have been using somewhat unusual methods to learn about the dangers of playing on rail tracks, using music and dance to get the message across.
While work on the £350million project is continuing this scheme will reach out to other children in the area.
So far one and a half thousand children from fifteen different primary schools have had a session like this one, in the hope of reducing unnecessary casualties.
The line is expected to open in the autumn of next year, and the people behind this scheme hope the children will continue to remember what they have learned.
