The West Highland Railway's Crianlarich station was (and still is) located a short distance south of this viaduct.
Following nationalisation of the railways in 1948, both stations at Crianlarich came under the ownership of British Rail.
The sidings were retained, access to them being controlled from a ground frame released by the single line tablet.
Crianlarich Lower station was closed to passengers on 28 September 1965 following a landslide in Glen Ogle, however the site was used as a timber terminal for several years afterwards.
Opened on 20 December 1897, the junction was located at one end of a short link line that ran to Crianlarich station on the West Highland Railway.
