Opened in 1848 by the Scottish Central Railway on the line from Stirling to Perth, this station closed in 1965. The platforms have been demolished but the building still survives as a private residence. View north towards Dunblane and Perth. A new station has been opened some 50m behind the camera position - see Image and Image Just over 4 years after this image was taken, the railway line was electrified.
