    Great job! Such a beautiful line. Definitely will take this trip, (including a visit to Corrour) the next time I visit Scotland (hopefully next year). Did you make it back to Edinburgh for your train home? I was in Inverness on the 16th and was set to take the sleeper back to London on the 20th when ScotRail cancelled all services. Managed to get on the 1st train to Edinburgh on Sat, but even that didn’t go as expected. Looking forward to your videos in the new year!

    Done this several times in the summer, well worth it. Nice to see in winter. But you might be out of luck with the Jacobite next summer. WCR have been told by regulators that they have to modify all the doors for H&S reasons.

    Great video as always however just a few tiny corrections to the names of the Lochs in the captions - Laggan was Loch Treig, Elit was Loch Eilt and Eli was Loch Eil
    The shop in Crianlarich is great as like you we were delayed there once a few years ago on a bitterly cold spring day changing from the Fort William to the Oban line……keep up the great work 👍😊

    I enjoy your videos and this route is still on my bucket list. I hope to do it in 2024 but I have a busy year ahead. Two things: when watching your videos I see regular errors in your grammar and text (three different spellings of Mallaig here, for example) so maybe get someone to proof-read before uploading? Secondly, you are "The Geordie Travels" but you are trying so hard to cover up your accent for some reason. Howay man, embrace it!! 👍
