Jacobite Steam Train

The Jacobite steam train crossing the 21 arch Glenfinnan viaduct during the Easter holidays. The viaduct crosses the river Finnan at a height of 100 feet. This is Scotland's longest concrete railway bridge at 416 yards. The single line track was opened on 1 April 1901. The viaduct has been used in a few TV series and films including Monarch of the Glen and the Harry Potter films. The structure overlooks Loch Shiel and the famous Glenfinnan monument, well worth a visit. took a wee video of the crossing, not sure if it would upload to flkr..
