Achnasheen Railway Station

Achnasheen railway station is a remote station on the Kyle of Lochalsh Line, serving the village of Achnasheen in the north of Scotland.

It was once an important railhead, handling passengers, mail and freight bound for parts of Wester Ross, including Gairloch and the Loch Torridon area. All freight in this area now travels by road. The station building still serves as a postal distribution point, but the mail travels from Inverness by road. There are three trains a day in each direction (one on Sundays) stopping here , connecting Achnasheen with all stations between Inverness and Kyle of Lochalsh, but these are lightly used.
