In foul weather, 47826 runs into Plockton station, at the head of 1Z48, the 16:15 Kyle - North Berwick SRPS railtour. Passengers on these trips have a choice of Plockton or Kyle. They get a longer break in Plockton, but the village is a bit of a walk from the station. Kyle is nearer the station, but the break is half an hour shorter.

47826, top+tailing with 47760, calls at Plockton with the SRPS railtour, returning to North Berwick. The annual visit of this tour is probably as busy as Plockton station gets. Most of these hardy souls will have walked down to the village, easy enough, but the trail back up the hill ain't so much fun, especially on a day like this.

After picking-up the few brave souls who had walked down to Plockton & back, 1Z48 sets of back to Aberdeen. 47832 is on the rear, with 47854 providing the power at the front. By now, the train was about 15 minutes late, due to a fault with the RETB radio equipment in the front loco. Due to the RMT strike action, the railtour passed the NR test train at Strathcarron and then passed NO OTHER TRAINS en route to Aberdeen. Arrival in the Granite City was 10 minutes early.
