Description
While staying near Dalwhinne in the Balsporran B&B located next to the A9 & (literally) backing onto the Highland Mainline it would have been rude not to record the trains that came past in such stunning scenery & unusually beautiful Scottish Weather. The caption photo was even published in Rail Express magazine. In order we see:

1: Intro of the busy A9 road which follows the mainline at most stages
2: 43139 + 43183 head south
3: 43152 + 43xxx pass northbound
4: 43003 + 43149 pass back to back running from Perth to Inverness
5: 66304 powers the 4D47 Inverness - Mossend tesco train
6: 43028 + 43175 head north
7: 43142 + 43147 head south
8: 800104 works north to Inverness
9-10: A view of the scenery
11: A huge bonus! 66302 + 66301 working 6S99 Georgmass Junction - Carlisle Kingmoor
12-13: 43026 + 43146 arrive/depart Dalwhinnie station heading to Inverness
14: Fresh 66126 works northbound in glourios sun working 4H57 Mossend - Inverness
15: 43169 + 43xxx with a good horn head north
16: A pair of 158s head south
17: Finishing off with a northbound Scotrail HST

Enjoy!
