From Carron to Aberlour on the Speyside Way

Staying at Grantown-on-Spey, decided to walk some short stretches of the Speyside Way, which runs from  Aviemore to Buckie, much of the way using the old Speyside railway track. The station at Carron is no longer there, but the little ornamental train is a reminder of the past.
Part of the old Imperial Distillery buildings at Carron. Most of the old buildings have been pulled down but a new distillery is being built.
 The sign is still standing at the disused railway halt.
 Road bridge over the old railway track.
 Devil's bit scabious was still flowering.
 Glimpses of the Spey between the trees.

Those old distillery buildings would make for fantastic apartments. Love the barrel-planter train!
