Map
This is part of a map featured in Andrew Drummond's new history - 'A Quite Impossible Proposal' - of the many attempts to deliver a railway from Garve to Ullapool. The map was prepared by John Dixon, promoter of the rival Achnasheen to Aultbea railway, and it is a map with an agenda. Stornoway is clearly shown to be closer to Aultbea than to Ullapool. The fact that Ullapool has been misplaced about 3 miles eastwards of its actual location is significant. As is the highly exaggerated loop of the detour of the Ullapool railway at Braemore.
