Glenfinnan Station Museum

Glenfinnan Station Museum

Glenfinnan Station Museum is a restored West Highland Line railway station on the ‘Iron Road’ to the Isles from Fort William to Mallaig.

In the museum you will learn about the building, impact and operation of the Mallaig Extension constructed by ‘Concrete Bob’ McAlpine in the late 19th century, and even work the original tablet instruments in the restored booking office. There is a changing exhibition of works by leading railway photographers, and the souvenir shop is well stocked with items associated with the West Highlands, including a wide selection of books and videos on the local area, its heritage and railways. The Museum is open daily from June to early October.
