Tue Military Hstablishment for Scotland included, for many years prior 
to the Union, a permanent Company of Artillery whose headquarters 
were at Edinburgh. This Company was sometimes designated a 
“Train” but the latter appellation, which is to be met with occasionally 
in the Warrant Books for Scotland, may seem somewhat hyperbolical 
as the Company consisted of a mere handful of men, including officers, 
as appears from the following Establishment List.
