    See Scotland’s stunning landscapes from the train.

    Travel beneath vast mountains and over wide open moors, alongside dark lochs and glittering seas.

    From the lush fields and forests of the Borders to the peat bogs of the far north; the remote wilderness of Rannoch Moor to the cinematic beauty of the Glenfinnan Viaduct (as seen in the Harry Potter films) – Scotland has never looked more beautiful from the train window.
