Not a train in sight, but this one of my favourite viewpoints. Behind the bare patch, at the foot of The Crags, is Duncraig Castle, which dates from the 1860s. At the time of the railway's construction, the Mathesons of Duncraig were big supporters of the line, and a private halt was provided for their use. This survives today, open to everyone now, and can be seen in the middle of the picture. The walk along the path to Duncraig takes about half an hour and must rate as one of the loveliest strolls anywhere in the country.
