Old Photograph Railway Station Morar Scotland

Old photograph of the railway station in Morar, a small village on the west coast of Scotland, situated three miles south of Mallaig, Scotland. Morar is a station stop on the West Highland Line and is served by the A830 Road to the Isles, between Fort William and Mallaig. It is famous for Morar Beach, known as the White Sands of Morar, which featured prominently in the film Local Hero, as well as in Breaking the Waves. Loch Morar, the deepest freshwater body in the British Isles, is located nearby. The Battle of Morar was a Scottish clan battle fought in 1602, between the Clan MacDonald of Glengarry and the Clan Mackenzie. Many houses in the area were used as training schools by the Special Operations Executive during World War II.
