Leachbhuidh No 79 Tunnel
K1 No.62005 hauls 'The Jacobite' round the curve at the eastern end of Loch Eilt on 19th September 2020. Nearby is the Essan Bothy and on the right are the remains of sheepfolds. The horseshoe shape of the land just in front of the bridge is where the Allt Easain and the Allt na Diollaid burns meet. They used to flow into Loch Eilt separately but when the railway was built their courses were altered so that only one bridge would be needed.
