A Quite Impossible Proposal

How Not to Build a Railway

Andrew Drummond
To this day, the railway map of northwest Scotland remains blank. Andrew Drummond traces the reasons to the 19th century, when successive plans for a line connecting Ullapool to Garve, near Inverness, were dismissed by the Scottish Office as ‘a quite impossible proposal’ – a decision rooted in the Highland Clearances and the influence of large landowners.
