Background
History
The station was opened as Lochluichart High Others suggest that it opened as a private station (under the name Lochluichart Lodge) in August 1870, becoming public (and renamed to Lochluichart High) in 1871. In 1949, Lochluichart was planned to be relocated to allow the flooding of the area by the Glascarnoch-Luichart-Torr Achilty hydroelectric scheme. On 3 May 1954, a new station was opened as Lochluichart
