Tour Scotland travel video of the Harry Potter steam train at the railway station on the West Highland railway line on ancestry visit and trip to Fort William. The first railway station here was opened on 7 August 1894 by the West Highland Railway which was later absorbed by the North British Railway. The present Fort William station was opened by British Rail on 13 June 1975. The current station lies in the shadow of Ben Nevis. The station is on the West Highland Line and the starting point for The Jacobite, the only scheduled steam hauled train to run on the mainline in Great Britain.
