A detail from the Scottish Region map for 1960-61 showing the railways of the North East.  Today's uquivalent is a little simpler, with a line coming up the coast to Aberdeen, then heading inland towards Inverness. Following the closure to passengers of the Dufftown line, through trains took the direct route between Keith and Elgin which was clearly seen as a mere branch line hitherto.
