This station opened on 24 August 1903. It was laid out with two platforms, one on either side of a crossing loop. There was a siding to the north of the station, on the east side of the line. One platform was taken out of use on 8 April 1927 along with the crossing loop. The station closed in 1966, when the Ballachulish Branch of the Callander and Oban Railway was closed. == Signalling
