HWW Kingussie Inverness-shire Scotland 13th September 2012

For a population of only around 1500 Kingussie has an impressive 1893 vintage stone-built station on the Highland line between Perth and Inverness.

Facilities include a pre-1915 Edwardian post box (notice the ER VII) although whether these days it is regularly emptied I'm not sure and a Victorian water fountain although that looks defunct - the vandals took the handles!.

HWW to everyone. Enjoy the day.

Good combo. If the fountain still works, the mailman may have a healthy drink of water while he's emptying the mailbox ;-)

Hi Pete
A wonderful and interesting picture, which I like very much!
Very nice composition
Great colours too, especially the post box!
I do remember visiting this station a couple of years ago, but don't remember this view!!
Best Wishes, HWW, a nice half week ahead, and stay safe!!

A substantial station for a small township, I wonder if there was a larger population when it was built. Belated HWW, Pete.
