The railway from Glasgow to Fort William and Mallaig passes through a superb variety of scenery from the shores of the Firth of Clyde, past lochs and mountains, and across the desolate moor of Rannoch before descending to Glen Spean and approaching Fort William from the north. A reversal is needed to continue to Mallaig, crossing the spectacular Glenfinnan Viaduct to reach the fishing port on the west coast.

Although diesel traction predominately took over in the early 1960s, a limited steam service was introduced in 1984. This book contains a stunning collection of images celebrating the power of steam in this exquisite setting.
