I was planning a trip to the northwest of Scotland, close to the part of the Highlands where I’d grown up. I’d travel on public transport to locations from three favourite films. First stop: the lonely rail station at Corrour, as featured in Trainspotting – the highest mainline station in the United Kingdom, 410 metres above sea level. Then on to Morar, where Local Hero is partly filmed, on Camusdarach Beach. Finally, the Isle of Mull, star location in Powell and Pressburger’s 1945 filmic wonder I Know Where I’m Going!

Rather delightful.
