In this video, I take a look at the two viaducts on the former Montrose and Bervie Railway. The line linked Montrose to Inverbervie and originally, it was meant to continue to Stonehaven to rejoin the mainline but financial and geographical barriers meant this never happened. Along the 12 mile route, which mostly passes through farmland, the line required two viaducts. The Kinnaber Viaduct is the better known of the two as it elegantly crosses the River North Esk but not as many people know about the Den Finella Viaduct. As a result, this video mostly focusses on the latter, including how to reach the neck stretching views from the bottom of the gorge it passes over.
