I am currently researching the old stage coach route west from Kingussie to Loch Laggan, Tulloch Station, Spean Bridge and Fort William as we hope to do a 100 year anniversary run in 2015 with a real stage coach called the Royal Highlander. (The last one to run on this route was the Caberfeidh I believe) 2015 being the last year. James Gillies the last coachman was a local legend and the mail coach pistol is in the Clan Macpherson Museum in Newtonmore. I am happy to share any info once I have it. Macdonald's Coach has certainly been mentioned. I also drive horses and live in Kingussie and have my Riding Stables in Newtonmore. Our family have been in the area for 150 years and all that time involved in horses mainly Highland Ponies.
I would be interested to hear more from anybody else who has more information.
