During the 1968 demolition of Connel Ferry West signal box, contractors burning the wooden remains set fire to the track formation.

Despite efforts to put the fire out, it continued to burn for several days, causing the embankment to crumble and smoke to issue from fissures in the trackbed.

This resulted in a 5 mph speed restriction being imposed and, at the time, caused concerns that the line may be forced to close.

[8]Facilities at the station are basic, consisting of just a shelter, a bench, bike racks, a help point and a small car park.

There are 7 departures in each direction weekdays, with 6 on Saturdays, with trains heading eastbound to Glasgow Queen Street and westbound to Oban.
