    On Sheff's link, the shot was taken just west of the underbridge, where the river passes under the line.

    Indeed - and it was the name on the NR bridge sign that I used to identify the location, since given the lack of other landmarks nearby it would otherwise just have to be described as "near Corrour"!

    Cheers,

    Thanks Chaps -- having discovered where, can anyone now suggest best ways to
    get to the location -- a car can be used if practical???

    Train is only really practical approach. I camped there by an old sheep fank in the snow - great sunset!
