About

Glenfarg is a town of about 670 people in central. (Human settlement in Scotland.) According to Wikipedia: "Glenfarg is a village in the Ochil Hills in Perth and Kinross, Scotland. Until 14 June 1964, the village had a railway station, Glenfarg railway station, on the main line between Perth and Edinburgh via Kinross. Although not recommended for closure under the Beeching Axe, the line nevertheless closed to passengers and freight on 5 January 1970, resulting in slower passenger services to Perth via longer routes. The former railway line is now the route of the M90 motorway, which runs along the eastern periphery of the village. At its peak, the village became a popular holiday destination, boasting four hotels. Services in the village include a church, small shop, tennis courts, riding school and a primary school with nursery."
