    What a wonderful journey it would be travelling through the Scottish highlands in a fantastic steam train . The smell of the coal from the engine would be a great memory of a bygone era.

    We done a coach tour of the UK last year. We where in Scotland for 8 days and loved the beautiful stunning scenery. I would now love to see it all again by train, we fell in love with the county.
