Railway Station, Fort William
The train is the sleeper service. The locomotive is one of thirty locomotives of this class built for the English, Welsh and Scottish Railway (EWS) for use on high-speed mail trains. The EWS decided to purchase the new high-speed 125 mph diesel locomotives to replace most of the Class 47 and Class 86 locomotives already on the mail trains.
"Every night except Saturday night, 'Caledonian Sleeper' trains depart from towns and cities all over Scotland, direct to central London arriving in time for breakfast. A little piece of Scotland that will take you right down to the Big Smoke..."

Previously WW1 Drill hall, now residential
World War One Audit of Surviving Remains, Osborne (2006), records a drill hall in Mary Street.
The front block is two-storeyed with half dormers, with a single-storey hall behind. The building had not been built by the time of the 2nd edition OS 1:2500 map. The building has now been converted to housing.
In 1914 the hall was the drill station for "A" Squadron, 1st Lovat's Scouts and base for "E" Company, 4th battalion Cameron Highlanders.
Information from HS/RCAHMS World War One Audit Project (GJB) 19 July 2013.
The single-storey hall is now a row of small houses.
