Lochside Track

Lochside Track
The single track runs alongside Loch Carron.

We have fallen in love with Scotland and when we go back it feels like we are going home

I have added 'One Track Mind' by Eric Clapton from his 'Back Home' album.

A beautiful view, great atmosphere Carol. I always regret not having travelled that railway line.
5 years ago.
Ecobird club has replied to Dave Roberts 2014
Thank you very much Dave. Really appreciated. We would have been better off on a train as they were working on the road a little further on and you literally had to wait hours to get through on the next convoy, - so long there was a portaloo in place! Now that is worrying!! It did allow us to take photos here though in a nice spot where you are normally unable to stop.

Beautiful landscape. I see the heather is out. I'm glad you like Scotland and feel at home.

Ecobird club has replied to Jean
Thank you very much Jean. I am pleased you like it. It is nice to see the heather out and it always reminds me of the gypsy ladies who used to come around trying to sell you heather to bring you luck. Yes I never want to leave but I guess you appreciate it all the more when you go back. Have a lovely weekend

Easy to see why this is listed as one of the most attractive rail lines in the country, Stunning composition and a wonderful autumn capture, like the heather on the far headland and the sweep of the bay in this beautiful image!

Ecobird club has replied to Rosalyn Hilborne club
I have only ever driven alongside the loch and never taken the train but it is a very attractive run Rosa. It would be nice to go by train though as you could both enjoy the scenery. We did go on the steam train from Fort William to Mallaig once and the scenery was beautiful. Many thanks Rosa and have a lovely weekend.

Thank you very much Gudrun. We did see quite a lot of overcast skies that week, with quite a few showers and plenty of rainbows too! For me it is all part of the charm of the place. HFF and have a good weekend.

Ecobird club has replied to Herb Riddle club
Many thanks Herb. Really appreciated. The road works did us a favour in a way as you can't normally stop here. We didn't wait for the next convoy through them though as that would have been hours to wait. We should have known really when there was a toilet provided! HFF and have a great weekend.

Hi Carol

I like this very much!

When I was in my early 20's I went to Scotland on holiday, and took a photo of a train running along the side of Loch Carron. I sure looks like the same spot!!

I must try and find it and check!!

Best Wishes, HFF, and a good weekend

Peter

Ecobird club has replied to Peter_Private_Box club
Hi Peter. Many thanks and it would be good to see your photo to see if it has changed at all. On previous visits we have not been able to stop along this road so the road works were a bit of a bonus. As the next convoy through was hours away there was very little traffic so we could take photos in safety. HFF and have a good week ahead

Thank you very much Eve. I am sure you would not regret it. On our first visit to the Highlands we drove through Glencoe in the early evening. It was magnificent and I was speechless with awe, - and it takes a lot to shut me up!! Have a good week ahead.
