Which is why there are plans to build a hydrogen plant in Oban, largely to replace 20% of the town gas, but also to provide fuel for hydrogen -powered trains.

By Road, Strathyre is halfway between Crianlarich and Dunblane. I'm not interested in the crow flies, not being a crow.

And the 92 off the Highlander usually spends the day in a siding at the east end of platform 10, known as the Klondike for some reason.

With so much of our renewable electricity being wind, there will be times when we will have a surplus, which can be used to produce green hydrogen at minimal cost, since the marginal cost of wind generation is virtually zero. It doesn't matter that electrolysis is still rather inefficient.

Actually the original poster didn't define 'nearest'. As the crow flies or by road? If we're discussing how the residents might actually access a train service, we should stick to realistic routes. Of course you could spend a couple of days hiking through the Cairngorms from Braemar to either...

You're being very strict about your interpretation of the OP's rules! Anyway Invermoriston is exactly halfway between Spean Bridge and Inverness so that certainly counts. And if you go a few miles north from Appin to Duror, that counts. Essentially if you're in the lower Spey, if you wanted...

Well, for a start, Fort Augustus is halfway between Fort William and Inverness. The Appin area has a choice of FW and Connel Ferry. The settlements from Grantown-on-Spey to Aberlour can either access the HML at Aviemore or the Inverness to Aberdeen line at either Elgin or Keith. Kelso can get...

There are too many in Scotland to list (although someone will now produce the list for me !)

The last bus back from Eyemouth is quite early. Probably better to take a train to Berwick, get the bus back to Eyemouth, then walk the coast path to Coldingham or even St. Abbs. After some refuelling you can then walk to Reston for your train home. I wonder if someone in St Abbs will...

The pictures in Canmore were clearly taken some time ago since they don't show the concrete pillars which must be recent.

It used to be. For reasons of patient safety, it's not permitted now. Not to say that staff don't stay some times after their shift has officially ended. And if there's a major emergency declared, the rules go out the window.

There's a Baltjc centre in Gateshead as well.

I believe that Northern was worse than Scotrail pre-covid.

It looks to me that there's a new concrete bridge supported by concrete pillars, with the listed wooden structure there for show and playing no part .

Modern Railways has tweeted that it will open on May 23rd.

Ember passengers will be able to take the tram from ingliston into the airport at no extra charge. https://edinburghtrams.com/news/all-electric-travel-edinburgh-airport It was posted a month ago.

Since most of their passengers would join or had left at Edinburgh, the seats would otherwise be empty. XC do/did the same - I remember seeing a queue waiting to join at Waverley to join a train to Glasgow, and when I asked about this on this forum, it was pointed out that XC tickets were...

The idea that the scogov is on the far left is bonkers. it's several decades since the snp left behind its republican socialist roots.

The last official update clearly said that the projects were sequential, not simultaneous. I would like to see reports of progress towards Barrhead.
