Can I have a 'P' please Bob - Scotland

[Sgurr]

I am toying with Drovers Road and Wade's Road (Wade's Aberfeldy Road? Wade's A???? Road) I don't suppose I'm right, but it may elicit a clue of sorts

[Tinto63]

Not there, Sgurr, but a good probing starter, you need to think Caledonian on this one, and keep hold of the road.

[Sgurr]

The site of Dalry road now forms part of the Western Approach route????? No? didn't think so Tried all the Calmac routes, am I barking up the wrong tree there as well?

[Tinto63]

Absolutely right Sgurr, the site of the old Dalry Road Engine Shed, originally Caledonian Railway pre the 1923 Grouping and 64C (that was going to be the next clue) with British Railways, now forms part of the West Approach Road.
Well done on getting this with such scanty information. Over to you.

Incidentally a former colleague and friend, now sadly deceased, started work there in the early 1960s and had great tales of working as a fireman on Black Fives down to Carlisle in the last few years of steam.

S o L is the birthplace of something that inspired a recently branded Tourist Attraction

[Tinto63]

Let's get the obvious out of the way, Sound of Luing?

[Sgurr]

Let's get the obvious out of the way, Sound of Luing?

Nope. I tried to change birthplace to cradle at the last minute, but it had gone past editing time.

[Sgurr]

SoL isn't a place.

[CharlesT]

Let's get Summer of Love out of the way for starters.

[Sgurr]

Not Summer of Love...but sort of on the right wave-length and around a couple of decades later

[gld73]

Sunshine on Leith...?

[Sgurr]

Yes, and the 500 miles prompted (allegedly) the naming of The Northern 500. Your turn gld73

[gld73]

Didn't know the song had inspired the naming of the North Coast 500! A non-musical one now though :

The GPMoS (aka MS) is at BC rather than in eastern Europe

[Sgurr]

The Great Polish Map of Scotland is at Barony Castle?

[gld73]

Yes, also known as Mapa Scotland.

Well that one went quickly Back to you Sgurr
