Having waited patiently for sometime between showers the sun finally

broke through to light the hill behind the islet Eilean na Moine, whilst in the distance heavy rain is falling on Tom Odhar and Seann Chruach.
Eilean na Moine is covered with Caledonian pine trees and is somewhat representative of the ancient Caledonian forests. The West Highland Railway line runs along the southern shoreline of Loch Eilt. This is the line that West Coast Railways operate The Jacobite steam engine on between Fort William and Mallaig. This line follows the 'Route to the Isles' and is considered by many to be one of the greatest railway journeys in the world passing through some of the best scenery on the West Coast of Scotland.
