Resplendent in freshly applied Saltire livery, 158708 pulls into Plockton station with 2H81, the 08:55 Inverness - Kyle. The unit was repainted at Springburn a few weeks earlier. The much-maligned Rhododendrons add a splash of seasonal colour to the rampant vegetation at the station.

158708 awaits departure from Platform 5 at Inverness with 2H87, the 17:54 to Kyle.

Two virtually identical shots - nine years apart, almost to the day. Very little has changed. There is, however, a nice example of how Network Rail thinks. While the ground-frame festers, a more important task has been undertaken. While new trespass signs have been erected at the platform ends, the job-sheet obviously neglected to say "Remove old posts." Never mind. Give it a year and they'll disappear into the undergrowth anyway.
