Alan boards the train in Edinburgh and receives an exclusive tour of the train before settling into his luscious cabin. Venturing beyond the train, Alan visits the Commando Memorial in Lochaber which pays homage to the brave British Commandos Forces who served during World War II. He then strolls across the gorgeous Silver Sands of Morar, filming location of the beloved Scottish movie Local Hero. Alan then hears the incredible story of the construction West Highland Line's extension from Fort William to the fishing town of Mallaig. The train gracefully traverses the iconic Glenfinnan Viaduct before Alan visits the Glenfinnan Monument, which commemorates the Jacobite rising of 1745.
