Forres Railway Station - Future Development

Future Development

The frequent Inverness-Elgin services would benefit from double platforms. This would mean the passing loop located east, outside the station, would be closed as trains could pass within the platforms.

Famous quotes containing the words future and/or development:

    “Parents are like shuttles on a loom. They join the threads of the past with threads of the future and leave their own bright patterns as they go.”
    —Fred Rogers (20th century)

    “This was the Eastham famous of late years for its camp- meetings, held in a grove near by, to which thousands flock from all parts of the Bay. We conjectured that the reason for the perhaps unusual, if not unhealthful development of the religious sentiment here, was the fact that a large portion of the population are women whose husbands and sons are either abroad on the sea, or else drowned, and there is nobody but they and the ministers left behind.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
