The official blueprint for the Tain–Brora Line, stretching across the heart of Sutherland: four stations, one glorious cable, and absolutely zero A9 tractor convoys.

Proposed Stations

  • Tain: Planned Southern Terminus.
  • Dornoch: Under construction (Clubhouse conversion under way).
  • Golspie (Dunrobin): Planned.
  • Brora: Planned Northern Terminus.

Key Journeys & Circuits

  • Dornoch Firth Crossing (18 mins): Glide several hundred feet above [[page-3178690|Royal Dornoch Golf Club]] and the Cathedral—safely out of earshot.
  • Sutherland Coastal Section (25 mins): Seasonal cliff-skimming up to Dunrobin Castle with seals and dolphins playing below.
  • Evening Circuit (60 mins): A heated sunset glide over the golden-lit moorland with complimentary refreshments.

Line Specs & Status

  • Target Opening: 2029, ahead of the summer tourist rush.
  • Reliability: 99.3–99.9% (using modern Tdg/3s tri-cable engineering).
  • Wind Threshold: 100 kph. Services pause only when the Highland gales threaten to test our dignity.
