Lochgorm Works 1939 - 1959

Lochgorm Works
The works were built by the Inverness and Nairn Railway in 1855 and subsequently absorbed by the Highland Railway in 1865. Its two-road erecting shop was mainly used for repairs although, between 1869 and 1905, it built a total of 41 locomotives. Lochgorm repaired as a repair works until 1959, the erecting shop being taken over and used as a diesel maintenance depot.
