The station opened on 10 October 1892 by the Highland Railway. The station closed to passengers on 14 September 1931 and completely on 30 December 1957.[1] Between 1 January 1917 and 2 June 1919 passenger services, except school services, had been withdrawn as a wartime measure.[2]
Despite being closed to passengers the station was host to a LMS camping coach in 1935 and 1936 followed by three camping coaches from 1937 to 1939.[3]
