Old Photographs Tyndrum Scotland
Old photograph of Tyndrum, Scotland. This Scottish village is notable mainly for being at an important crossroads of transport routes. The West Highland Railway Line from Glasgow splits approximately five miles to the south at Crianlarich, with one branch heading to Fort Willam and the other to Oban. Tyndrum has a station on each: Upper Tyndrum on the Fort William route and Tyndrum Lower on the Oban route. Overshadowed by Ben Lui, one of the Munros, Tyndrum is also built over the battlefield on which, in 1306 AD, Clan MacDougall defeated Robert the Bruce and took from him the Brooch of Lorne.
