Inverness 1954

Description

Apart from a seasonal through train in each direction between Glasgow and Wick, all trains terminate at Inverness, which is operated as two stations side by side, one for the north and one for the south and east. Freight traffic included is substantial, particularly on the Perth main line. You have a full 24 hour shift to operate, though it gets quiet at times. New features include double-heading when necessary on all lines, the need to keep a serviceable shunter in each yard, and occasional locos for repair at Lochgorm Works. Not our hardest, but plenty to think about.
