Jacobite Steam Train Photos
Steam on the viaduct, the view from the carriage window and the glens the tours drive through. Weighing up a Jacobite express tour? These are the places your day takes you.
The set opens on the Glenfinnan Viaduct, 21 concrete arches on a curve, with the train crossing and Loch Shiel stretching away down the glen. You see it from the hillside, from below the arches, empty on a quiet day, and from inside a coach as the train leans into the bend.
Then Glenfinnan itself: the Glenfinnan Monument, a column raised in 1815 on the flat ground at the head of the loch, where the 1745 Rising began. Next the train up close, a Black Five with The Jacobite headboard at the platform, and the train again in a wooded glen further along the line.
The set ends on the road the tours drive back by: steep ridges in a Highland glen, a stag on the moor and a white cottage in the mist.
