A view up the glen - a photo on Flickriver

A view up the glen

            GBRf's 66733 edges across the North Viaduct on the Horseshoe curve with 6E45 0807 Fort William to North Blyth alumina empties.

The glen in this instance is the snappily named Achadh-innis Chailein which leads up to Loch Lyon and Bens Dothaidh and a' Chuirn.

Re the viaduct, the following (abridged) text from the Canmore site - this viaduct was built by Formans & McCall of Glasgow to carry the West Highland Rly across the Allt Kinglas; it opened on 11 August 1894, and remains in use. It is of lattice girder type and its length of 576 ft (175.6m) includes nine spans of 60 ft (18.3m); it was built by hoisting the girders into position with cantilever lifting tackle.
