To ask the Secretary of State for Transport of which disused railway lines in Scotland, British Rail still owns, (a) the land and (b) the track bed.

I do not have the information in the form requested. British Rail owns some 155 miles of disused railway in Scotland which in general comprise a large number of short isolated stretches of which only a very small proportion contains the trackbed.
