Thanks. If the North British Railway had had their way, that line would have been extended to Inverness....and would possibly still have been open to this day. Unfortunately the Highland Railway - and some wealthy Highland landowners, who were probably HR shareholders - had other ideas and were determined to use all the powers available to them - including Parliamentary ones - to defend their bastion in the North.
Next up:

No, no and no....in that order.
Clue 3: This station has one through platform used in both directions, another terminal platform only used in emergencies and formerly had another two bay platforms which are now closed and filled in.
