The Idea of North

On the journey north from Glasgow there were a lot
of scenes like these. I ended up taking pictures of the trees
I tried to get the various kinds. Spruce, fir, pine, larch. Also lots of  silver birch and oak.

Then suddenly we got a view like this. I think it's Ardgartan Hotel in Arrochar  on Loch Long.

We had a bit of excitement when the train passengers realised that the emergency vehicle was a bomb disposal unit! 

This should have been the first picture - it is the Clyde between Cardross and Helensburgh

This is Loch Sheil from the Glenfinnan Viaduct

Not sure, but this has the feel of Loch Lomond about it - we were coming south again at this point.
