Doubtful facts

[edit]

At present part of the text reads "By 1862, Matheson was Chairman of the Northern Railway, making it the largest in the Highlands. He joined up with Joseph Mitchell to extend the line to Dingwall, the directors dispensing with his services by 1867. The line finally opened on 1 August 1870." I hate putting "dubious" or suchlike in the face of an article, so I'll put it here.

I don't know what the "Northern Railway" means. The Dingwall and Skye Railway didn't open on 1 August 1870. The Inverness and Ross-shire Railway had long since opened. Anyway, for now I have put an image of his portarit up. Afterbrunel (talk) 14:40, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
