Georgemas Junction station building, the UK^s most northerly junction, where the Wick and Thurso lines divide, seen in heavy rain from 158717 returning from Thurso before continuing to Wick, on 17th June 2019. This train will have reversed at this station only half an hour or so earlier to go up to Thurso, reversing again there and thus serving Georgemas twice in the now even longer journey from Inverness to Wick.

^The Georgemas^ underwent a transformation when much of the station - the island platform - became a loading point with a crane. The view looking towards the junction itself shows the new facility.
