3rd Aug 1984

A grab-shot from the 14.15 Fort William to Glasgow train at Bridge of Orchy, and 37112 is waiting at the platform with a freight for Fort William. For me this typifies the West Highland line, with the familiar island platform station and Swiss-cottage style building, wonderful scenery and one of many of the Class 37/0 locomotives handling freight traffic on the line, most of which has been lost forever. Oh, for a time machine!
