Hello McFrehley,

Welcome to the Scotland.com forum. Always nice to hear from members north of the Highland Line. Makes such a pleasant change.

Historically, the Highland line distinguished the two Scottish cultures. While the Highland line broadly followed the geography of the Grampians in the south, it continued in the north by cutting off former Norse Caithness, Orkney and Shetland from the more Gaelic Highlands and Hebredies.[1]

And two maps to go with it

The key word being "Historically"
