West of Tulloch at 13.42, at a location known as Achluachrach, EWS Class 66 no. 66112 is rounding the bend here with the 6Y15 08.36 Mossend to Fort William "Enterprise" freight service. At the time this was a daily service and today was formed with 3 x BDA bogie flats (for timber traffic), 1 x PFA two-axle container flat and 12 x "Alcan" PCA loaded alumina hoppers. I knew the train was coming, but moments before it appeared a snow flurry began much to my disdain, although in the end I thought the effect was quite pleasing.
