TikTok's train-spotting fanatic Francis Bourgeois has been spending time in Edinburgh recently and has uploaded images on his Instagram story of himself next to ScotRail trains at Waverley Station.
Recently, the influencer surprised fans in Edinburgh as he was spotted walking along Princes Street on Friday, May 27.
One passer-by made her friend grab her phone in desperation as they passed Bourgeois and snapped a video of him.

The TikTok star has racked up millions of followers on the app, going viral and winning the hearts of people across the nation while attaching his go-pro to his head and visiting railway stations and tracks across the UK, with the end goal of hearing the train whistle.
As is the trend with viral influencer and social media stars, Bourgeois's videos attracted a lot of hype in the media and with fellow popular celebrity figures which culminated in the wholesome character collaborating with the likes of Nick Jonas, Gucci and former French footballer, Thierry Henry.
Since being spotted on the capital's busiest street on Friday, Frances has updated his 1.7 million Instagram followers with a picture of himself on one of the platforms at Waverley Station, as well as one of him on the terrace of the Market Street hotel, looking down at the historic station.
In the background of Francis' first post, he is surrounded by three ScotRail HST trains. While many would never bat an eyelid at seeing a mode of transport that we have been accustomed to up close, he is seemingly fascinated by the history and future of rail travel.
The second image is of Francis at the top of a nearby hotel with views onto the roof and exit of Waverley Station with the caption: "Spotted from the top of Market Street Hotel."
Although Francis is yet to upload any Edinburgh-specific content to his TikTok account or any of his other socials, there may soon be videos on the way for Edinburgh-based fans.
After being spotted by a fan on Princes Street on Friday, Francis gave a little smile and wave back to the ecstatic girls that spotted him as he continued walking on his own towards The Mound.
