Not much has been done in this country by way of building observation cars, although there are a few in use. Of these the finest is undoubtedly the beautiful Pullman car, "Maid of Morven", which is run by the London, Midland and Scottish Railway during the summer from Glasgow to Oban, in the West Highlands of Scotland. The passengers sit in the big bow window at the back, and enjoy from Callander to Oban an unbroken panorama of one of the loveliest successions of mountain and valley, moorland, loch and sea that could be found anywhere in our country. It is a trip that, once made, you are never likely to forget.
