The experience

About this day out

The Keith and Dufftown Railway is Britain's most northerly heritage railway, an eleven mile line linking Dufftown, the World's Malt Whisky Capital, with the historic town of Keith. The journey passes rolling hills, forests, deep glens and barley fields, with several distilleries along the route, and the railway holds a tourist board four star attraction rating. Individuals, groups and parties are all welcome, and the Dram Tram can be chartered for parties or celebrations.
