Early Spring in the West Highlands, the snow remains on the peaks, and the greenery of the hills is yet to come through. The Metro-Cammell built 156, the mainstay of the line for many years eases its way off the Horseshoe curve.

37423 ‘Sir Murray Morrison’ powers along the Mallaig extension near Lochailort with the InterCity Land Cruise Mk1 stock. These white roofed InterCity coaches always looked amazing.

A cracking July day walking part of the ‘Road to The Isles’ between Corrour and Rannoch Moor Stations. The twelve and a half minute train journey took a leisurely 4.30 hours with stops for watching the cloud porn and snacks. Best hostel #lochossian #roadtotheisles #rannochmoor #westhighlandline
From #London 🏴 to #FortWilliam 🏴 on board the #CaledonianSleeper, composed of 🇬🇧 Mk2 and Mk3 coaches. The vestibules came with opening windows, very much to the photographer‘s delight.

To #Mallaig on the #WestHighlandLine on a glorious day! 10 and a half hours there and back, but all that sitting made up for by some of the best scenery in Europe.
