I rode the Jacobite Steam train last summer because that was on her must wish list. While I thoroughly enjoyed it I wondered about driving to Mallaig instead. I am going back in July and my husband too has expressed a desire to ride the train. However based on the itinerary I've set up and difficulty in trying to change lodging (going to Uig on Skye as next stop from Glencoe) I wondered if it might not be a beautiful drive versus riding the train? Train is avail in the afternoon on desired date but that puts us back at Fort William at almost 7pm and rhen it would be an almost 3 hr drive to Uig.
Any other suggestions? Lodging is so difficult on Skye and we were fortunate to get lodging at same guest house as last year right on the water.
