Forever my favourite film, screenplay & soundtrack. Quite simply the perfect film - one with which it is very hard to find fault. I visited the beach shortly afterwards and 45 years after that made the dream move to Scotland permanently. Films can do that to a person.

Always thought this line was a particularly sad loss. Not only could Callander really use a rail link these days given the "interesting" nature of the A84 and the traffic, but the full line to Crianlarich linked up the West Highlands with the Central Belt.
