Whilst driving past Elgin yard this afternoon, I noticed piles of new ballast. I was wondering if anyone could possibly tell me what may be happening. Is this part of the Aberdeen – Inverness line upgrade, or is it anything to do with the transport of whisky from Elgin like there was at the end of last year?

Thanks,

Ben.A

There are going to be a number of bits of jointed track renewed next month. The rail is already in position between Alves GF and EL18 (up distant) plus a section to the east of Elgin. Another site has been cleared for unloading ballast which is due for unloading this coming week. It's just a planned re-lay and not part of the bigger upgrade announced.
