    Lovely. You brought together the dichotomy of people verses money. Give me people on Rannoch Moor any time. Thanks. Rmb

    Plenty deer still there. If I went out for a bit of venison I'd run the risk of prosecution because it belongs to a wealth parasite but if that same bit of venison leaped out in front of my car and caused damage , it belongs to no one.

    Certainly true that RETB saved the Far North railway, faced with the unaffordable cost of renewing miles of blizzard-destroyed telegraph pole route. Very fortunate that one BR team was already developing a solid-state signalling system and another team a driver-signalman radio network at the time. RETB in Scotland was updated with 21st century tech a few years ago.

    I thought I recognised Rannoch's station master, often we would make the long journey from say Aberfeldy where we were camping and go watch the trains which were quite scarce up and down. Rannoch itself has a history of how they used to pack everything and anything under the sinking tracks in a battle against nature and how when the snow came the place would disappear under huge drifts that overcame the diesels as much as it did the steam engines. Sometimes in the 70's my brother and I found Morar's old roundel sign plus a stop and a couple distant wooden signals and we took them back to show me BR signalman father who got really cross and drove us back over the bay and made us chuck them in the bushes we had found them :( I mean Morar's post WW2 station sign O.o, however he didn't spot the two telephone insulators we had found and had hidden in our clothes bags, one LMS signed on top, the other may have been a Caledonian railway one, used to have a collection of them including LNER, GWR, SR and BR signed ones and my father thinking they were worthless threw 'em away whilst I was in service... what would they and the roundel sign be worth today?

    My father was offered I think Locheilside if we bought the station and back then it was absolutely sparse and what BRB property's hadn't told me mum and dad was someone had torched the station building and it was gutted and no amount of promises of sending in the chippies etc got my mum to move on that decision. My father would have taken work at Banavie and BR wanted me mum to be the station sort of person and the place back then saw like 1 person a week and it was so cold and wet and miserable she would have left me dad if he said yes lol Funny thing was my father was known as the English looney who was going to buy the knackered station and any lingering doubts put to rest and so his plans to return to Scotland came to naught as we had plans indeed of a campsite, small shop maybe but that cold wet day sealed that fate thankfully hehe Both my English daughters live and work in Scotland so at least one generation put our family back in the land of the sweaty sock as us Londoners would call it hehe

    Bumped into this man hillwalking over the years . It was not until I attended a shell seminar organised by mick Tighe for Scottish mountain rescue at balmoral that I was able to put a name to the craggy weather beaten face. What a marvellous time spent in the company of this educator.
