Far North to Didcot via Inverness, Aberdeen and London

A beautiful day in the far north of Scotland as I set off.

The Flow Country
Snow on some of the hills
Bright and sunny
Frost still on one side of the valley

Arrived in Inverness in the dark- took the train to Aberdeen to catch the sleeper service there as no cabins available on the service from Aberdeen.

Breakfast on the sleeper at Rugby
Arrived to a grey day at Euston
Made it to Paddington just after eight.

Each time I come to London the traffic flows a bit better and the air tastes better. ULEZ doing its job.

The Far North Line

This is a super beautiful route in the daylight, especially on a sunny day. But also super slow and super cheap. A bit miserable in the dark and the toilets never appear to be totally clean.

The ever changing landscape is amazing, one of the most beautiful train routes in the UK, and as far north you can get by train.

Mind, the windows are not clean.
