Background

History

The station opened as Dunkeld Road on 17 May 1849 by the Scottish Midland Junction Railway. To the north was the goods yard, to the south was a siding and on the northbound platform was a signal box. The station's name was changed to Strathord in February 1857. Around this time, the services were reduced to Tuesday, Friday and Saturday. A daily service resumed in January 1867. A second platform was added in 1906 when the Bankfoot Light Railway opened. The station closed on 13 April 1931.
