Strathcarron

Apologies for the graininess but here is another vintage photo from my archives of the LCGB 1974 'Skyewayman' weekend railtour from Euston to Kyle of Lochalsh, seen here during a stop at Strathcarron on the Saturday morning of 6th April after its overnight journey. This allowed a train from Kyle to Inverness to pass in the loop and provided enough time for tour passengers to alight and stretch their legs. Little did I know then that it would be 45 long years before I would visit the Kyle line again, on a packed 158712 from Inverness on 18th June 2019 (see my photo 70568).
