History

The station was built in 1856 for the Crieff Junction Railway, which connected the town of Crieff, four miles to the north, with the Scottish Central Railway at Crieff Junction (now Gleneagles). The CJR was absorbed by the Caledonian Railway in 1865, which itself became part of the London, Midland and Scottish in 1923. The line and the station were closed as part of the Beeching closures in 1964.
