Originally it was known as the Mull and West Highland Railway. The line opened in 1983 and closed in October 2010. With no interest in retaining the line in August 2012 the assets were offered for sale. It was a 10¹⁄₄ in gauge line, 1¹⁄₄ miles long, which ran from the ferry terminal at Craignure to Torosay Castle. Glen Auldyn was a privately owned diesel hydraulic 8 wheel loco built on Mull by Bob Davies in 1986.
