Ghost Train: Callander to Crianlarich (Lost Scottish Railway Animation)

My first Scottish video! An animated past and present look at the lost Callander to Oban Railway that once connected Callander to Crianlarich.
In the 1950s local use of the line declined heavily, and the contrast between summer and winter loadings became more extreme. As traffic declined, it was eventually decided that closure would take place between Dunblane and Crianlarich from 1 November 1965, the through traffic being diverted over the West Highland line and the Crianlarich connection.
The last excursion train was planned over the line for 27 September 1965, but in the small hours a rock fall took place in Glen Ogle. The blockage was considerable, and after engineering assessment it was obvious that re-opening for a few weeks was impracticable. The section from Crianlarich to Oban remains in use today.
