Here is a video of the celebrations for the centenary of the completion of the West Highland Railway Line in August 1994. It features the steam train coming into Arrochar and Tarbet Station with many local children and people and then on to Ardlui. The commentary provides an insight into the construction.

This footage was kindly provided by Billy Thompson of Cardross. It is 5.5 minutes in length and 9Mb in size. It contains an audio soundtrack with overdubbed dialogue..
