HistoryKillin Junction station opened on 1 June 1870,[1] providing passengers on the Callander and Oban Railway with a connection to Killin by the newly opened Killin Railway. The station was situated in the woodlands on the slopes leading up to Glen Ogle pass and, apart from the railway, could be reached by footpath only. The station was closed on 27 September 1965 following a landslide in Glen Ogle.[2][3] Nowadays a forestry road following the track of the old line to Killin leads from the A85 to the location. There are still traces of the platforms, a few derelict former railway houses and the line to Glen Ogle, which can be followed for some distance, although fallen trees after a recent{{When|date=May 2012}} storm block the track in places. All signal boxes and other buildings are gone. {{Historical Rail Start}}{{rail line|previous={{Stnlnk|Glenoglehead}}|next={{Stnlnk|Luib}}|route=Callander and Oban Railway |col={{Caledonian colour}} }}{{rail line|previous={{Stnlnk|Killin}}|next=connection to C&O|route=Killin Railway |col={{Caledonian colour}} }}{{s-end}}ReferencesNotes1. ^{{cite book |last=Butt |first=R.V.J. |title=The Directory of Railway Stations |year=1995 |publisher=Patrick Stephens Ltd |location=Yeovil |isbn=1-85260-508-1 |id=R508 |page=132 |ref=harv }} 2. ^Hodgins & Sanders; p 40 3. ^Thomas; pp 127-131 Sources
