Do you feel safe knowing that radioactive materials are being transported by railway through the Highlands?

Train transfers between Dounreay power station in Caithness and the Sellafield site in Cumbria have got protestors worked up.

Tor Justad, Chair of the Highlands Against Nuclear Transport group is leading a demonstration outside Inverness station today.

He told MFR News: "Transporting nuclear waste through this environment is highly dangerous for a whole number of reasons.

"We know that nuclear power stations have been the target of terrorists looking for targets."
