This looks like a flatbed railway wagon on the short section of spur track which left the Musselburgh branch line and originally ran to the Harbour. if I remember correctly, there were some signs e.g.rails? still visible in the early 1950s, where this spur had crossed the main road to reach the Harbour. The ine was originally a branch (opened 1831 to carry coal) of the (horse-drawn) Edinburgh & Dalkeith Railway.
