Got it thoroughly wet on the third day of a tour of Scotland visiting railway stations for my Club's annual Challenge. In total I visited nine from Ballater up to Forsinard and across to Plockton and six others, and rode 759 miles. First two days had lovely weather.
Â
If you are in the area go see Dunrobin Castle and the falconry display, then pop across the main road and see what major landowning wealth bought as a personal railway station. There is even a siding on the platform, presumably for a private carriage to park.
Â
I was escorted out of Armadale harbour on the ferry by a pod of dolphins doing the full "fly out of the water" move. Magic.
Â
If anyone is intending to go thru' Fort William in the near future be prepared for major queues on the North and West approaches. There is a road development just north of the centre with a new roundabout.
