  • FORT WILLIAM to MALLAIG Experience the Breathtaking Beauty of the Scottish Western Highlands Aboard the World-Famous Jacobite Steam Train and Its Vintage Carriages
    West Coast Railways Presents FAMOUS STEAM TRAIN 2021 Season FORT WILLIAM TO MALLAIG Experience the breathtaking beauty of the Scottish Western Highlands aboard the World-famous Jacobite Steam Train and its vintage carriages. “The World’s Greatest Railway Journey” THE JOURNEY Fort William to Mallaig Described as the greatest railway journey in the world, this 84 mile round trip takes you past a list of impressive extremes. Starting at the highest mountain in Britain, Ben Nevis, it visits Britain’s most westerly mainland railway station, Arisaig; passes close by the deepest freshwater loch in Britain, Loch Morar and the shortest river in Britain, River Morar, finally arriving next to the deepest seawater loch in Europe, Loch Nevis! The Train stops en route to Mallaig at the village of Glenfinnan. Beyond Glenfinnan are the beautiful villages of Lochailort, Arisaig, Morar and Mallaig. You may alight at Arisaig by request to the guard. From here, on a clear summer’s day, you can see the “Small Isles” of Rum, Eigg, Muck, Canna and the southern tip of Skye. The train continues on from here passing Morar and the silvery beaches used in the films “Highlander” and “Local Hero”. Come and join us and find out why! THE ROAD TO THE ISLES Following Harry Potter.... West Coast Railways, operators of ‘The Jacobite,’ provided the steam engine and carriages for the ‘Hogwarts Express’ as seen in ‘Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone’ and others in this wonderful series of films. Some of the carriages of ‘The Jacobite’ are similar to those used in the ‘Harry Potter’ films.

  • Rich's Notes: 1 Chapter 1 the Ten Doctors: a Graphic Novel by Rich
    The Ten Doctors: A Graphic Novel by Rich Morris Chapter 1 1 Rich's Notes: The 10th (and current) Doctor goes to The Eye of Orion (the Five Doctors) to reflect after the events of The Runaway Bride. He meets up with his previous incarnation, the 9th Doctor and Rose, here exploring the Eye of Orion sometime between the events of Father’s Day and The Empty Child. The Ten Doctors: A Graphic Novel by Rich Morris Chapter 1 2 Rich's Notes: The 9th and 10th Doctors and Rose stumble upon the 7th Doctor and Ace, who we join at some point between Dimensions in Time and The Enemy Within(aka. The Fox Movie) You’ll notice the style of the drawings changing a bit from page to page as I struggle to settle on a realism vs. cartoony feel for this comic. Hopefully it’ll settle soon. And hopefully none of you will give a rat’s bottom. The Ten Doctors: A Graphic Novel by Rich Morris Chapter 1 3 Rich's Notes: The 10th Doctor, in order to keep the peace, attempts to explain the situation to Ace and Rose. Ace, however, has an advantage. She's seen some of the Doctor's previous incarnations in a strange time trap set up by the Rani (The 30th Anniversary special: Dimensions in Time, which blew chunks). The 2nd Doctor arrives, seemingly already understanding the situation, accompanied by Jamie and Zoe. (The 2nd Doctor arrives from some curious timeline not fully explained by the TV series. Presumably his onscreen regeneration was a farce and he was employed by the Time Lords for a time to run missions for them before they finally changed him into the 3rd Doctor.

  • Master of All!
    INFINITE WHONIVERSES- MASTER OF ALL! A SEQUEL TO Unity is Strength (INFERNO 3RD DOCTOR) “Once you start down the Dark Path, forever will it dominate your Destiny.”- Yoda- Star Wars- The Empire Strikes Back. 1 Prologue- The Panopticon on Gallifrey- There was uproar in the Panopticon as High Councillors vehemently argued with each other, the Lord High President left stunned and speechless as the news sank in. The Planet Earth in the 20th Century Timezone was gone, a burnt husk of a world, survivors few and scattered. There was incalculable damage to the Timeline. Two Timelords had been sent to investigate, to find out how it could have happened. Until then speculation and rumour brought disagreement and discontent to Gallifrey. Only a Timelord could cause such damage. While there were a few suspects, the two most likely candidates were Koschei of House Oakdown and The Doctor of House Lungbarrow, who had been exiled to Earth to prevent a number of invasions in that period. Had he failed? Whoever was responsible would be found and punished for the damage to the Web of Time. --- Koschei-Mordox-Skaara-Tre-Kordor of House Oakdown was no more, now he was THE MASTER OF AL L! He breathed deep, relishing his new body. The utter foolishness of the High Council would be their undoing. He grinned at the thought. The two emissaries, Borusa and Vancell had arrived to find him weak. The Alternate version of 2 himself had bungled the job of trying to kill him. He chuckled at the absurdity of the concept.

  • 5 Day Highlands, Isle of Skye and Inverness Tour
    5 day Highlands, Isle of Skye and Inverness Tour Day 1 ➢ Our first stop is the mighty Stirling Castle and Wallace Monument. This commanding position at the foot of the Highland boundary has been fought over for thousands of years as a strategic point to control the entire country. ➢ We continue north/west into the Stirling Castle mountain wilderness to visit Etive Mor, an extinct super volcano known locally as “the Shepard of Glencoe”. Here we turn off the beaten path into Glen Etive for spectacular scenery and hopefully spot Red Deer in their native habitat. ➢ Next stop is Scotland’s most desired spot, Glencoe. Towering mountains on all sides and a bloody history make this an unforgettable experience to all who visit Glencoe ➢ Our final port of call is the town of Fort William at the foot of Britain’s highest mountain, Ben Nevis, where we stop for the evening. (Fort William will be our overnight stop). Day 2 ➢ We start the day with a visit to Thomas Telford’s engineering masterpiece, Neptune’s staircase. Constructed 200 years ago it’s part of the Caledonian Canal system. This series of 8 locks lifts boats some 70 ft from the sea level to Loch Lochy above. ➢ We then head west to Glenfinnan and Loch Shiel for one of Scotland’s finest views. Here we will see the Glenfinnan and Loch Sheil Glenfinnan viaduct which featured in Harry Potter and the Jacobite memorial. ➢ We continue along the spectacular road to the Isles and catch a ferry for the short journey from Mallaig to the Isle of Skye.
