Sand, silt and debris brought down by the River Gynack across the Inverness to Perth
railway line blocking the Caledonian Sleeper in Kingussie Station
The rampaging River Gynack
Heavy rain caused by the tail-end of Hurricane Bertha turned the River Gynack that runs through Kingussie into a raging torrent of water carrying silt and trees onto nearby streets and the Perth to Inverness railway line blocking the overnight Caledonian Sleeper at the station. The plan is to bus passengers this evening from Inverness and Aviemore to Kingussie from where the sleeper will head southwards to London Euston overnight.
Welcome to Kingussie's famous beach!

Two railway workers, Jim! More than you would ever manage to find in any SNCF town of call the size of Kingussie. But maybe they are only stationed there because they are keen followers of shinty.
Luc. This is certainly in the heart of shinty.
