Kyle of Lochalsh Line

The Kyle of Lochalsh Line is a primarily single track railway line in the Scottish Highlands, running from Dingwall to Kyle of Lochalsh. The route is sparsely populated, but the scenery is beautiful and can be quite dramatic, the Kyle line having been likened to a symphony in three parts: pastoral, mountain and sea. Many of the passengers on the trains are tourists but one can also expect to meet locals visiting Inverness for shopping, and commuters. All services are provided by First ScotRail and run to Inverness. To maintain the passenger link beyond Inverness, one daily train runs through to Elgin (in the current 2013-14 timetable) having in the past come from Glasgow, Edinburgh or Aberdeen. The line has some sections of double track north of Dingwall and all trains are diesel-powered, since none of the line is electrified.
