Tuesday, 31 January 2012. Appreciating Scotland's Whisky Distilleries from the comfort of the Train. Yesterday morning I was on the train between Inverurie and Inverness, it was a lovely clear day with the winter sun appearing to warm the now, purple skeletal twigs and illuminating the slender, silver trunks of the birches. I look forward to the lovely curved sweep on the line where, at Boat O'Brig close to Diageo's modern Achroisk Distillery, we cross the majestic Spey. Whilst waiting in the wings at th...

On the main-stem of the river, SFB bailiffs and biologists also make frequent use of open-canoes for their important research work on the river monitoring fish stocks, tagging programmes and sea-lamprey studies, as well as counts of saw-bill ducks (mergansers and goosanders). To ensure staff members are competent, thus safe on the river SFB staff undergo training before undertaking any of the Board canoe-based work. Having done a little b...

Spirit of the Spey Blog Page: Lifting The Spirit ~ The Grain Train
http://spiritofthespey.blogspot.com/2013/09/lifting-spirit-grain-train.html
Friday, 27 September 2013. Lifting The Spirit The Grain Train. There has been much deliberation lately on how to tackle the growing number of tragic accidents occurring on the A9. The Scottish Government has now pledged to have the A9 upgraded to dual-carriageway by 2025. Indeed, work is due to start between Kincraig and Aviemore in 2015. However, 2025 is a very long way off with a lot of upheaval and driver frustration between now and then. Which provides a highly palatable and nutritious feed for cattle.
