This aerial footage reveals the full extent of the fire that completely destroyed a historic building in Ballater in the small hours of this morning.
More than 50 firefighters were called out to the Old Royal station in Ballater just before 2am, and they have been fighting the fire all morning.
The blaze has destroyed the wooden restaurant, but crews managed to salvage a replica of the Royal railway carriage used by Queen Victoria when she visited Balmoral Castle.
The crews are now at the dampening-down stage of the operation, and are checking for any remaining hot spots, using thermal imaging cameras.
