If you type Caledonia in the Filter box and set the Age drop-down box to All and press the Refresh button you'll find lots of threads on this song. At least one of them has a link to a midi file (which is still there). It's not perfect, but if you've heard the song it'll probably be enough.

I didn't check all the threads, so you might see if there's anything in the others.

If you go to Dougie's official website he has a guitar man who helps out with all "Dougie" arrangments.
All credit to Dougie for that - Many would consider it state secrets!

Jeri's MIDI of Caledonia is here (click). She says she wants to do more work on it, so I haven't posted it at Mudcat MIDIs.

Joe, it'll be up today. I haven't had a solid chunk of time to finish it. (er, at least not since 2 days ago when MMario reminded me I was supposed to have sent it.)

I'm putting it here because this thread is about the tune, and the thread where I said I was going to put the tune is the "Correction:" thread.
This is transcribed from a recording of Dougie MacLean. The tune varies with each verse, so I've tried to capture the 'flavor' of it without getting too fancy. Here goes:

You can hear Dougie himself play and sing his song here:

And you can hear our own Mick singing the song here:

Here's an earlier version of Caledonia:
Dougie MacLean w Kathy Mattea: Caledonia
The tune and phrasing are a little different than in some other recordings.

I have a nice version of Dougie singing with a nice fiddle player but I don't think there is a fiddle part as such.
