caption_attribution_description: English: Dismantled railway The railway used to run to a diatomite mine. This section has been used as dry ground for a fence, and it makes a good alternative path to the nearby track. Ahead is Sgurr a'Mhadaidh Ruaidh (Hill of the Red Fox). It's hard to look at the ground with a view like this ahead.
context_page_description: Sgùrr a' Mhadaidh Ruaidh is a summit in the Trotternish range of hills in the north of the Isle of Skye, Scotland. It is located about ten kilometres south-east of Uig, and 15 kilometres north of Portree, at the point where the long ridge running from north to south down the Trotternish peninsula loops suddenly eastward. It is 593 m high, and its grid reference is NG474584.
  The cultural importance of this landmark lies in part in that it gave its name to the novel The Hill of the Red Fox by Allan Campbell McLean.
