Railway track at Clachnaharry, Inverness
Although the railway tracks end abruptly here, they are still in use. The railway crosses the Caledonian Canal here, on a swing bridge. The railway is Scotland's Far North Line.

In this image the bridge was open, an indication that no trains were due to pass. When a train is due, the bridge will swing closed to enable the train to cross.
