In the 1980s and early 1990s, Scotland was an excellent destination
for the railway enthusiast. The many locomotive hauled trains
running through splendid scenery, together with the surviving
railway infrastructure and mechanical signalling, provided many
fine photographic opportunities. My first railway visit to Scotland
was on board The Fair Maid rail tour to Perth, behind Flying
Scotsman in 1983\. The following year, I again travelled to
Scotland, this time on the F & W Railtours The Skirl O' The
Pipes 4, to Kyle of Lochalsh and Mallaig, my first visit to the
Scottish Highlands. I had previously been travelling abroad for
railways, but impressed by what I saw, I decided that I would
quickly return to photograph the Scottish railway scene, before it
changed too much. This was the start of a series of visits, each
for one or two weeks, between 1984 and June 1991, covering the
whole country. This book is a photographic record of the
locomotives, trains and infrastructure of the railways of Scotland
and the landscapes through which the trains ran, as recorded by my
various cameras during the period of my visits.
