In the Doon Valley, the ex-G&SW line from Ayr to Dalmellington was out of sight on the right here, being still in existence although closed to passengers since 6/4/64; a branch (closed 2/11/59, passengers 3/4/50) went off NE from Holehouse Junction to Belston Junction and Ochiltree, the station having been an 'Exchange Platform' only and closed 3/4/50. The hill ahead is the Crags of Kyle (799 ft.) (Cf. Image]).
