    I'm a bit of a railway buff myself. Thanks for the pic.

    Great picture, Freelander. I like to ride on the Jacobite at least once every summer; hoping to go on it again next month. Here are a few scenic shots from the archive:-

    Arisaig, October, 2003.

    Lochailort, October, 2003. The train doesn't normally call here but made a special stop because it was the final run of the season.

    Loch Eilt, climbing towards Glenfinnan on the return leg, August, 2005.
