Background

History

Although the Ballachulish Branch of the Callander and Oban Railway had opened in August 1903, this station was not opened until 7 March 1904. It comprised a single platform on the east side of the line. The station closed in 1966 when the Ballachulish Branch was closed. The site of the station has been obliterated by the A828 trunk road having been realigned over the route of the former trackbed in 1990. <br /><small>Line closed</small> |next = <br /><small>Line and station closed</small> |route = Callander and Oban Railway<br /><small>Ballachulish Branch</small><br /><small>Caledonian Railway</small> |col = |lightcol= }}
