I Went To The UK's Most Remote Station | Corrour
I went to the UK's most remote station. 10 miles from the nearest public road, Corrour railway station in the Scottish Highlands has an unparalleled sense of isolation.
After spending some time in the Loch Rannoch area, I head to Rannoch Station, a remote train station stop on the West Highland Line between Glasgow and Fort William. I catch a train into Scotland’s wilderness to reach Corrour railway station, known as the UK’s most remote train station and the UK’s highest mainline station.
Corrour Station is located in the middle of nowhere and the amazing Corrour Station House restaurant is a great place to stop for a coffee or a meal. The area surrounding Corrour train station is popular for outdoor activities and hillwalking, especially as there are some munros located nearby.
The beautiful Rannoch Moor is one of Scotland’s last wildernesses and the views from the train were spectacular. Corrour in Scotland is such a fantastic place to visit and I recommend it to those seeking solitude and looking to get away from it all.

WHO AM I?
If we haven't met before... Hi, I'm Ruth 👋 and I recently bought a campervan to travel my home country of Scotland after living overseas for 12 years. I’ve hardly seen anything or been anywhere in Scotland and now is the time to change that!
P.S. Some of the links in this description are affiliate links that I get a kickback from.

Corrour Station was such an amazing place to visit! What's the most interesting railway station you've ever visited? Let me know below. 👇

Hi Ruth, Fantastic video, I can see the Highlands and Islands tourist board hiring you to make their video. I love Rannoch and surrounding areas. I don't wish to criticise like airies, you pronounce Pitlochry perfectly just take the loch from the middle of that. I used to pull my caravan up to Rannoch if you were driving next to the loch you had to look out for the deer jumping across the road. You could also get groceries in the bank. The first time my wife and I went there the camp site was closed, when I stopped outside the gate and switched off my headlights it was pitch black. Your enthusiasm makes me want to get down to the station and jump on a train.

As a 92 year old who knows these areas so well having worked in Skye 60 years ago your videos bring back so MANY HAPPY MEMORIES. My Sincere Thanks to you for your superb videos! keep up the good work!
The way the stations at both Corrour and Rannoch have been preserved and made attractive to visitors, with the cafe and restaurant, is an imaginative bit of planning, to be applauded. The history of this line is interesting too. Like Venice, it survives atop a footing of timbers in swampy ground. 5000 men took 10 years to build it. Amazing! Thanks Ruth for showing us this wild place.
Love your videos, I'm a retired signalman, and at one time was offered the position of signalman at Rannoch, the job had a cottage going with it but the elderly couple who had retired were still in the cottage and I didn't want them forced from their home, I would have loved living and working there but ended up as a relief signalman at Dumbarton which was even better.

I’ve probably spoken to you at Craigendoran! Bill Gray moved up to Fort William Jnc when Yoker took over. Poor soul died in the box on the nightshift, I was banavie that night and the bulks driver phoned me when he got held at the inner home, he walked to the box and found Bill. Last time I was in Craigendoran I used it as a bothy when I was pilotman because the bells were down. The box wasn’t looking too great! Then I picked up the sleeper in the loop and headed home, probably 20 years ago now.

@paulmacdonald4530 sorry to hear that about Bill, I covered pilotman between Craigendoran and Garelochhead, first time that I was on it and got off at Garelochhead in the dark, I went to use the public toilet as we had no key at that time to get into the bothy, we'll after I finished I went to wash my hands and thought that someone had left the remains of their fish supper in the sink, I went to lift it out and it was a nappy, fully loaded, my stomach still churns at the thought of it, but travelling up on the bulks at one o'clock in the morning was an experience.
Ruth you've done it again. I want to go here so badly now! I can't believe you can get to one of Scotland's (and probably the world's) most remote places by train on a day-trip! It's so beautiful. I really want tempted to find someone to watch my cats for 6 months and drive around Scotland.
ヒースが続くハイランドと言う感じで良い所ですね。 スコットランドの風景は、少し寒そうで、身体が引き締まる感じがして好きですね。 日本では、岐阜県の馬籠宿から長野県の妻籠宿へ続く古い道がサムライroadと呼ばれて、海外から来た旅行者に人気です。 ドイツ人、オーストラリア人、フランス人etc。

Brilliant Ruth. Have heard about this place many times and it looks fantastic. Ha
I have seen Corrour in the morning mist and evening snow when passing through in both directions on the sleeper train. I have also seen it in the brilliant sunshine when I took fhe grain from Fort William one time and took a walk around the loch behind the station. A beautiful and remote gem still undiscovered. I agree with your comments about the NC 500. My partner and I did parts of it on touring bicycles 20 years ago before the van crowds emerged. Thankfully!

Corrour station enabled the original landowner to bring barges by rail, and then ship building materials to the opposite side of Loch Ossian to construct a lodge, in the late 90s a new Corrour Lodge was built nearby (using a 26 mile long (dirt track) road for access). Dormitories were erected on site to house the construction workers and we had a ball living in the wilderness working on such a beautiful contemporary "castle". It was built for the owners of the Tetra-Pak company at the time, though I don't know who owns it now. Great content!!

thurso is the northernmost town and railway station in mainland UK in scotlands highland province on atlantic coast facing orkney island and its capital kirkwall, a few kilometers away accessible by ferry. highway from central scotland also ends here, costco superstore being a prominent landmark of thurso town. the track section is from highland capital inverness. most stations in inverness thurso section are in wilderness and very remote. thurso to penzance, in cornwall, southwest england, is longest railway stretch in uk, about 2200 km. john o groates, another hamlet in northern coast, however, is not connected by scotrail. this is the viking zone of UK carrying history of norwegian invaders and settlements in past. amazing place on earth that is scotland. bagpiper sound never really leaves you even when you have left the land far behind for another country. and sipping glenfiddich in a faraway country, stokes those unforgettable memories.

Agree about nc500. There is so much more to the highlands. My favorites are the outer Hebrides. I have done a few by motorcycle and find that a ferry crossing adds a little extra to the trip.
