Great Coastal Railway Journeys S01E17 Helensburgh to Connel (1280x720p HD, 50fps, soft Eng subs)
From the 250-year-old 'new town' of Helensburgh on the north bank of the Clyde, Michael Portillo takes his favourite West Highland Line across epic landscapes to Garelochhead and Ben Cruachan and thence to Connel Bridge and the waters of Loch Etive. / / Along the way, Michael investigates the Highland Boundary Fault, which separates the Highlands from the Lowlands, and learns how Scotland's geology has influenced its history. / / Between Loch Lomond and Loch Long, Michael explores the deep waters of Garelochhead at Faslane, where Britain's nuclear-armed submarines are based. / / Alighting next at the pretty Falls of Cruachan station, Michael ventures inside the hollow mountain of Ben Cruachan to visit a power station with a reservoir on top of it. Electricity is generated here using an ingenious method known as pumped storage. Michael meets one of the 'tunnel tigers' who dug out the mountain in the early 1960s. / / At Connel Bridge, Michael joins a marine biologist on an RIB to collect phytoplankton from Loch Etive as part of a long-term project to monitor the health of the waters.
