All of the Kyle of Lochalsh line is pretty spectacular but I really like Strathcarron station. This was the view from the station footbridge this morning, towards #Inverness on the left, the view out to Loch Carron over the level crossing and eventually onto #Kyle, on the right.

A terrific resource for anyone researching #PullmanPorter ancestors, from the wonderful #Newberry #Genealogy Library in #Chicago:
"Teach with primary sources from the Newberry's collections. This FREE lesson plan teaches students about the #Pullman Company--one of the largest employers of #AfricanAmericans in the early 20th century--and the #porters who worked there."

Morning, all! Hot here, today, already 30 when I rolled out of bed. I’m off to the specialist later.
Today’s photo is Wonderdog on a training walk… well, she likes to visit the trains!
