I was due to catch the now derailed train to take me to Glasgow at Banavie, however when I arrived at the station (at 07:05) the signaller in the 'box shouted down and said the train had derailed, she didn't know what arrangements were being made for passengers as it had only just happened, and that my best option would be to seek alternative transport to Fort William, pointing in the direction of a Local bus stop.
Well, I just missed the only bus that would get me to Fort William in time for when the train should have left after switching direction for the Journey to Glasgow (07:44). After a frantic search for a taxi service I arrived at FTW station at 07:35 and was chaperoned to a waiting Citylink coach due to leave at 07:45.
I had hoped that the unit on platform one forming the 08:30 Fort William to Mallaig would instead be pressed into service to take over the now derailed 07:44 to Glasgow, however presumable there was no train crew to take it forwards.
Cue a rather disappointed me, having had no time for breakfast as planned during the ~20 minute break in Fort William, and stuck with a coach for the next few hours. Fortunately, the coach took less time than the train, and I was able to make my connection in Glasgow with plenty of time to get a delayed breakfast!
