Tyndrum Lower Station

Tyndrum Lower first opened in 1873 as the temporary terminus of the Callander and Oban Railway.

The line was connected to the West Highland Railway at Crianlarich in 1897 and this is now the surviving route direct from Glasgow.

The station opened as simply “Tyndrum” and kept that name even when a second station for the village was built in 1894 with exactly the same name! It wasn’t until 1953 that the Lower suffix was added.

Tyndrum Lower is on the West Highland Line – two hours journey from Glasgow or one hour from Oban.

The station is unstaffed and there are no passenger toilets. The single platform has level, step-free access.
