Altnabreac in Caithness
is a small halt that the trains from Inverness pass through, close
to the end of their journey from Inverness to Wick and Thurso in the
north of Scotland. Trains stop at this station 'on request'.
There are mountains and many small lochs within a ten mile radius
of the station, but I found little evidence of any sign of
habitation. There is no main road to the station.
These notice boards leaning on the farm gate at the station
entrance give the train times - three trains each way
most days, two trains each way on Sundays.
The station platform and old water tank can be seen in the
background. |
