Perth to Inverness

narrated by Sally Magnusson Stereo 95 mins.

Perth is the gateway to the Highlands of Scotland.
and still boasts a large imposing station. The main line
features stretches of double and single track with
semaphore block signalling predominating to Aviemore.
There are stiff climbs to the two summits at
Druimuachdar and Slochd, the latter forming the summit
of the Inverness cut-off line. This direct line from
Aviemore to Inverness was a major feat of civil
engineering forced upon the Highland Railway company
by the threat of competition. It was completed in 1898
having taken 14 years to build.

The two largest structures spanning the rivers Findhorn
and Nairn are seen, like the rest of the route, not just from
the cab but from a helicopter flying overhead!

Stations seen include: Dunkeld and Birnam, Pitlochry, Blair Athol, Dalwhinnie, Newtonmore, Kingussie, Aviemore and Carrbridge.
