From the Prince's Cairn
With reported adhesion problems on the climb to Kinloid and beyond, 44871 finally passes Loch nan Uamh. Good news for linsiders as the rain had cleared and the sun shone. Less good news for passengers, however, who were treated to a second crossing of the viaduct after stalling again. Further bad news awaited as the problems increased before a Cl 37 was sent out to rescue the train near the tunnels at the summit. Final arrival at Fort William was 132 minutes late.
