Wemyss Bay |

Wemyss Bay lies on the Firth of Clyde. It is the departure point for the ferry to Rothesay on the Bute. Wemyss Bay station, above, was built in 1903, to accommodate the large number of holidaymakers travelling from Glasgow to Rothesay. Here, the Royal Scotsman charter train can be seen in Platform 2. The train arrived at Wemyss Bay at the end of its tour of Western Scotland at lunch time. The passengers have left the train to travel by bus and ferry to visit Mount Stuart House in Bute. They will be returning in the late afternoon. Here the waiter has set up his wine table on the platform to welcome the passengers back. They will be sleeping on the train at Wemyss Bay and returning to Edinburgh the following morning. |
