Jacobite Steam Train - Fort William to Mallaig and Return
Jacobite Steam Train - Fort William to Mallaig (Scotland) and Return
Steam in the Highlands - The Jacobite Steam Train (July 2017)
Take a ride on The Jacobite steam passenger service from Fort William to Mallaig in the beautiful Scottish Highlands.
The West Highland Line route was featured in the Harry Potter films as the setting for the Hogwarts Express - most notably the viaduct at Glenfinnan.
This video marks my first time outside of the United States, and special thanks goes to Dayna Jodzio for driving on the wrong side of the road to get to these beautiful locations!

The Jacobite is a steam locomotive-hauled tourist train service that operates over part of the West Highland Railway Line in Scotland. Jacobite Steam Train has been operating under various names and with different operators every summer since 1984. Jacobite Steam Train has played an important role in sustaining a scenic route.
The daily service of the Jacobite Steam Train departs Fort William at 10.15am and arrives at Mallaig at 12.25pm. The Return from Mallaig departs at 2.10pm arriving back into Fort William at 4pm. The service crosses the additional afternoon train at Glenfinnan on Mondays to Fridays and this is the only regular crossing of two steam services passing each other on the national network. In 2011, for the first time, train operator West Coast Railway Company added a second daily Jacobite service from Fort William to Mallaig due to demand, using Ian Riley's Black 5 44871 and a spare set of coaches that were formerly used for The Cambrian. The additional service departs Fort William at 2.30pm with an arrival time back in Fort William of 8.24pm and runs from June to August, Monday to Friday. The future of the Jacobite service was thrown into doubt in 2015 by the complete suspension of West Coast Railways' train operating company licence. The ban was lifted on May 8th 2015, allowing the Jacobite service to continue. West Coast Railway were banned again in February 2016.
The Jacobite runs a distance of 41 miles between Fort William and Mallaig, passing through an area of great scenic beauty including alongside Loch Eil, Glenfinnan Viaduct and Arisaig. Trains cross with regular service trains at Glenfinnan station. The route is also the same shown in the Harry Potter films. The company running the Jacobite service provided Warner Brothers with the train used as the Hogwarts Express in all of the movies and allowed them use of the Jacobite's route for filming. The locomotive used to pull the Hogwarts Express in the films, the GWR 4900 Class 5972 Olton Hall, is presently located at Warner Bros. Studios, Leavesden and can be seen during studio tours.

The Jacobite: Britain's Best Train Journey (4K)
The only word I could think of to describe this journey was simply, breathtaking. We were very lucky with the weather in July (2018) and as such the backdrop to the 42-mile journey was indeed breathtaking. Harry Potter fans will immediately identify the Glenfinnan Viaduct, which come up about half way along the route. If you want to see the Highlands in all their glory, this is the way to do it.

British Trains 13 - Fort William to Mallaig Jacobite steam and Bo'ness and Kenneil railway 1999
a video of steam, July 1999, summer as you can tell by the weather.
Firstly, sorry about the low res of this clip, as unfortunately it is what was recoverable from a 15 year old video tape.
the first clip is a trip on the Bo'ness and Kinneil railway, which is home to the Scottish railway preservation society.
the second clip was a trip on the Jacobite steam service from Fort William to Mallaig.
filmed over 2 days, the first day on the train, then the second day, chasing by car. the weather for the 2 days was wet, but thats Scotland. this does mean, that the B1 did slip a bit in the rail as there are steep grades and sharp curves over the route. one of the first clips is the train traversing the swing bridge go the caledonian canal, at the bottom of Neptunes staircase locks which are a series of 8 locks built by Thomas Telford between 1803 and 1822. i suspect i had a flat battery on the camera which was why there was no running into Mallaig clip or anything on the return, and on the chase day, i just couldn't get to the station before arrival
locos are north British Maude 65243 at Bo'ness, and Thompson B1 number 1264 on the Jacobite
some locations on this route were used in the Harry Potter movies, for example, shots of trains at Glenfinnan on the viaduct
B1 1264 is owned by the Thompson B1 Locomotive trust and was also allocated the number 61264 under the BR numbering scheme
