The Whisky Line

 

Class 108 DMU leaving Keith Town station, Moray, Scotland

The trip to Scotland in September ended up being a mixed bag of experiences. No fault of Scotland's, it turned out that I would end up in the second week gradually feeling worse and worse as a rather nasty dose of flu took hold. The steady stream of photographs I'd usually take suddenly reduced to a trickle.

One highlight early on in week one, however, was a trip on the Keith and Dufftown Railway, also known as  the Whisky Line, a heritage railway in Scotland, running for 11 miles (18 km) from Keith Town, Keith to Dufftown.  It is the most northerly heritage railway operating in the British Isles and well worth a visit.
