Excellent. It brings back memories. I walked the West Highland Way from Mulgarvie to Fort William in late September six years ago, and it rained virtually every step of the way. On Rannoch Moor we had 80 mph winds and horizontal rain. Consequently, we saw little of it. I took this train back to Queen Street Glasgow and it was glorious bright sunshine and blue skies all the way!

I remember getting caught in a snow blizzard at Crainlarich back in the early seventies, I was hitching. The blizzard came out of nowhere. It was like wham-bang as we turned a bend in the road. I would suggest the weather there is 'changeable'. FortWilliam has to be the rainiest place in the entire UK. I swear every time I've found myself in FortWilliam it has rained, and rained and..... The scenery though is awesome. It's well worth the journey. Thanks for the upload and memories.

This brought back memories. We traveled by train from Glenfinnan to Ft. William, took a bus to Crainlarich ( due to a problem on the rail line) and got the train from Crainlarich to Stirling, via Glasgow Queen St. Station. But we got to go through Glencoe. Wouldn't have missed that for the world.

I had the pleasure of taking this train from Glasgow to Malliag back in 1973. What a wonderful trip. Back in those days it was a "real" train hauled by a Bush diesel electric loco and I think five coaches.

Beautiful trip. Being from Canada, I am used to seeing large unpopulated areas, but given the size and population of Scotland, I find it amazing to see such wide open countryside.
@ds18687 жыл бұрын
The vast majority of Scotland is either upland or mountainous, so a high percentage of the land area in Scotland has a very low population density. The vast majority of the population in Scotland either lives in the coastal cities such as Edinburgh, Glasgow, and Aberdeen, or even more importantly the central belt between Edinburgh and Glasgow. So the view on this cab ride is not unique to Scotland, or indeed to the major upland areas of Wales or northern England.
@inkyscrolls51937 жыл бұрын
Despite Scotland as a whole being a relatively small country with a relatively large population, almost all of the inhabitants live in the towns and cities of the Lowlands. The Highland and Lowlands each make up just under half of the country, but the Lowlands have a population of around 4,800,000, and the Highlands just 234,000, giving a population density comparable to that of Russia!

Most of the points (switches) are designed to be trailable, and to "recoil" back to the right position after. Designed to make the line as cheap as possible to operate, but there are a few exceptions (at 0:36 you can see the first points have the yellow part in between and are train operated, but the second doesn't and are conventional power operation).

Great video! As North American's where farms are ubiquitous, I found it unusual to see such open land, without farming or livestock, especially as we travel north. Doesn't appear on Google maps to be public lands. Is the land just not conducive to such ventures?
@DickHolman7 жыл бұрын
It is farmed. The land is mostly owned by large estates, with sheep, cattle & timber the main agricultural crops. Deer-stalking, driven-game shooting & salmon-fishing are tourist-derived income-streams.
@gordon15457 жыл бұрын
I'd be surprised if there's any cattle between Crianlarich and Roy Bridge. Maybe some before Tyndrum. After that it's all sheep, though far fewer than there used to be. Thomas, the land is extremely unproductive, it is mostly deep peat, very acidic and very wet. It's not even any use for timber. It's also pretty savage in winter, and very wet all year. It is however an important landscape - most of Europe's raised bogs are around here. As Dick says, income comes from huntin', shootin' and fishin', for which wealthy men will pay a lot. But the main source of private income in these areas is tourism.

@catrachocolo7 жыл бұрын
When exactly was this filmed? There is a German VHS/DVD featuring cabrides on the West Highland line - filmed in September of '97 - and judging by the on-screen descriptions and graphics at the beginning of the video, this seems to be a copy of it. The cars and the clothes and hairstyles of the passengers surely fit that time period. Interesting to see that so shortly after privatisation (ScotRail took over the franchise in March '97) the DMUs still carry BR's Regional Railways livery and the carriages in Fort William are still painted in BR's Intercity colours.

Really? i would of said 2004-2005. The livery on the sprinters is actually ScotRails first (white with a green red and blue stripe- Regional Railways was white with blue stripes) and the InterCity coaches at Fort William are still there
