Comment posted BBC news piece with helicopter footage of derailed freight train on West Highland Line by Lundavra.
The video from RESCUE 137 has the position of the helicopter displayed at the bottom of the frame. I converted it to NGR and looked up on the map as none of the news reports gave the position. It is about 2.5 miles from Fersit so about 2 miles from the nearest road (or track) by the East end of the dam.

- 31 hour shout Tobermory Lifeboat’s longest ever, ending in joint operation with Oban lifeboat
I presume that its previous cargo was to Ireland.
I did not look carefully when I saw it at Corpach on Thursday but fairly sure it was loading there so it was not a ‘diversion’. FRI OCEAN has been into Corpach previously. - 31 hour shout Tobermory Lifeboat’s longest ever, ending in joint operation with Oban lifeboat
