Tour Scotland short 4K Summer travel video clip of the sight and sounds of a diesel passenger train passing under a bridge on its way to Inverness on visit and trip to the Scottish Highlands. The Highland Main Line is a railway line in Scotland. It is 118 miles long and runs through the central Scottish Highlands, mainly following the route of the A9, and linking a series of small towns and villages with Perth, Perthshire, at one end and Inverness at the other. The vast majority of the line was built and operated by the Highland Railway, with a small section of the line between Perth and Stanley built by the Scottish Midland Junction Railway, amalgamated with the Aberdeen Railway to become the Scottish North Eastern Railway in 1856, and then absorbed by the Caledonian Railway in 1866. Originally, the line between Inverness and Perth went via Forres, but the Inverness and Aviemore Direct Railway was opened in 1898 to allow for a more direct routeing. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day. Find things to see and do in Scotland where you are always welcome
