Background
History
The station is situated on the former Inverness and Perth Junction Railway (I&PJR) and was opened along with the line in 1863. In 1865, The I&PJR amalgamated with other railways to create the Highland Railway. In 1897 the building on the north-bound platform was replaced with a more substantial building to the designs of the Engineer in Chief to the Highland Railway, William Roberts. The main block on the south-bound platform received an addition in order to extend the booking office and the stationmaster’s rooms.
