The Jacobite sports the iconic British Railways lion-on-wheel emblem, pictured above left. Passengers ride in stylish comfort as they take in the sweeps of melancholy moors, rugged rock outcroppings, and sun-dappled lochs that comprise the landscape of Scotland’s Highlands region, where an almost otherworldly beauty invites exploration.
Leaving a telltale trail of smoke in its wake, the train—named for the historic Jacobite political movement, which has ties to the area—chugs merrily along, as heather-covered mile after mile passes by, each one bringing a new sight worth savoring.
