A Three Day Rail Trip from North Yorkshire to North West Scotland from the 'lowlands of England' to the 'Highlands of Scotland' and a trip to Edinburgh City. Interesting places to visit, places to stay, good walking areas
2. Inverness Train to Kyle of Lochalsh 3. Late Evening and Early Morning in the Kyle of Lochalsh 4. Walk in the Cuillin Mountains on the Isle of Skye 5. Return Rail Journey Kyle of Lochalsh-Inverness-Edinburgh The photographs of the wild Scottish Highlands were taken with a cheap digital camera, many through the railway carriage window! Despite this, I hope the five pages of photographs convey the wonderful railway trip holiday in Scotland I so much enjoyed. I must travel on the Mallaig line soon! Page 6. A Trip to Edinburgh Part I - A walk up to the Castle and down the Royal Mile to St Giles Church 7. Edinburgh Part II - Continuing down to Holyrood Palace and back up to the Scot Monument * Scotland is traversed by some of the most scenic railway lines any tourist can undertake in the UK or even Europe? * Why more people, 'the tourists' on holiday, do not forsake their cars and take to the 'train line' for a day I can't explain. But, I hope these humble photographs, mostly taken through the railway carriage window, will inspire more people to make the trip on Scottish trains up through the lowlands and on to the beautiful Highlands regions and districts of Scotland. * Above left, the ScotRail Edinburgh to Inverness train waiting below the Scott Monument. Above centre, mountains, glens and rivers on route to Aviemore in the Cairngorms National Park.
