History
Opened by the Inverness and Perth Junction Railway, and absorbed into the Highland Railway, it became part of the London, Midland and Scottish Railway during the Grouping of 1923. Passing on to the Scottish Region of British Railways on nationalisation in 1948, it was then closed by the British Railways Board.
The station had been the location of a Camping coach.
