A £170m investment package has been confirmed by First Minister Alex Salmond for the Inverness to Aberdeen railway.
Over the next five years, there will be a redoubling of the track between Aberdeen and Inverurie. Platforms at Insch and Elgin will be extended to accommodate six-car trains. Signalling improvements will be made at Elgin, the station at Forres relocated and work done so new stations can be built at Kintore and Dalcross. Kintore's original station was closed in the 1960s. Dalcross is close to Inverness Airport. Future phases of the scheme will support an hourly service between the cities with average journey time reducing to about two hours, it was announced.
