Ahead of its opening, artist David Gray was commissioned to produce another of his jokey, quirky - and informative - maps. The New Borders Railway Map, is available from www.northernbooks.co.uk and local stockists. Price £2 (UK Post: £1.50; overseas: £3) or by post from: Famedram Ltd, PO Box 3, Ellon, AB41 9EA

Other maps in the series – all £2 each –include Iron Road to the Isles (the Jacobite route from Fort William to Mallaig), The Kyle Line (Inverness to Kyle of Lochalsh) as well as a map following the progress of the West Highland Way, from Glasgow to Fort William. All available from www.northernbooks.co.uk.
