Halkirk

Travel Guide

One of Britain's most isolated and remote railway stations - trains rarely stop, only on request, and it is inaccessible by road. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altnabreac_railway_station - Taken by me, robef (https://www.flickr.com/robef)

Approaching site of Bower station on line from Wick, 1986. View westward, towards Georgemas Junction and the south: ex-Highland Railway (Far North line), Inverness - Dingwall - Georgemas Junction - Thurso/Wick. The line remains active, but the former station - just visible ahead - was closed from 13/6/60 (goods 18/5/64).
