Old travel Blog photograph of the Hotel at Tummel Bridge, Perthshire, Scotland. A Hydroelectric Power Station was built near the hotel for the Scottish Power Company as part of the Tummel Valley hydro-electric scheme, the station, fed by a catchment area of 381 square miles, gathered into Loch Rannoch and a smaller reservoir at Dunalastair, and delivered from an aqueduct. Two generating sets, producing a total of 34mW, are unusual in that each turbine has two horizontal runnes and spiral casings.
