More about this scene
An excursion steamer waits at the pier. The picturesque loch, which is ringed with hills, features in Sir Walter Scott's poem 'The Lady of the Lake'. The famous steamer SS 'Sir Walter Scott' was built on the River Clyde, then transported by barge up Loch Lomond, and dragged by horses up the steep incline from Inversnaid along to the west end of the loch. Here she was re-assembled and launched. She is the last screw steamer to be operating a regular service in Scotland.
