Dalbeallie Station

I know it says Tamdhu, but Tamdhu Distillery did not exist when the railway was built, and second edition of the six-inch Ordnance Survey map names it as Dalbeallie Station, after a farm a few hundred metres further east. See http://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/#zoom=16&lat=57.4584&lon=-3.3512&layers=6&b=1. Disused since Dr Beeching's savage cuts in the 1960s, much of the Strathspey Railway now forms the route of the Speyside Way. The station buildings at Tamdhu have been preserved as a point of interest, and the station building served for a time as the Tamdhu Distillery visitor centre, though it was empty when I took a look in today. The nearest building was the signal box.
