Scope and Content Dingwall Station, Ross and Cromarty This station was on the Inverness and Ross-shire Railway, opened to Dingwall in 1862. This station was built in 1886, and is similar in style to Pitlochry and Nairn, which were rebuilt a little later. This view shows a cast iron hand-crane in the goods yard. Such cranes were common in goods yards in the Victorian period, but were rare by the 1970s. Since this photograph was taken the crane has been scrapped, and the site of the goods yard has been developed for housing. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
