West Highland Railway Line - Tour Train

Knowing it would be dark before this steam tour arrived in my own neck of the woods, headed North.

Most of the images are in Crianlarich station when the locomotives stopped for about an hour to take water before continuing on their journey.

Didn't count the carriages but it was a long train and a class 47 diesel took up the rear.

As always we hope for better light but the day was fairly dismal ending in rain before it arrived at Arrochar en-route to her destination.

Stirlingshire Views

Chasing steam trains today on the West Highland Line.

Not the best light and getting in to winter temperatures, but wanted to capture some images while in the area.

I can only say that among all the beautiful countries in the world, Scotland is right up there with our wonderful hills and scenery.
