Lochluichart Deviation (British Railways)
Introduction
This two mile deviation is part of the railway between Inverness and Kyle of Lochalsh. The deviation opened in 1954. The original portion of line is abandoned. It lies to the immediate south and is normally covered by the waters of Loch Luichart, the level of which was raised when it was converted into a reservoir for Luichart Power Station, a hydro power station. The deviation includes a new bridge at the west end over the River Bran, a new Lochluichart station and a bridge over the tail race (water leaving) of Mossford Power Station (also known as Glasscarnock Power Station) another hydro power station.
