The Orcadian 

Our second Scottish adventure. This time to the Far North and Kyle lines. In preparation each loco sported highland stag logos and both were given an alter ego (on one side only), 50049 displaying 50012 Benbow, and 50031; 50028 Tiger.  

50012 and 50028 climbing the Lickey.

The train now in top and tail mode runs along the shore of Loch Carron passing through the rock-fall shelter.

The end of line. As far north as she can get 50031 stands just inside the train shed at Thurso.
