Glencarron Platform was an intermediate halt on the Dingwall and Skye Railway between Achnashellach and Achnasheen.

Delightfully located in the isolated Glen Carron, the platform eventually began to be used by regular members of the travelling public alighting to explore the landscape or rejoining the train after walks.

[2] However, this traffic was not very substantial and along with two other Kyle line stations – Achterneed and Duncraig – it was closed in 1964 as part of the Beeching Report.

Occasionally trains continued to call, wholly unofficially, at both Glencarron and Duncraig.

Glencarron was not accorded this honour and remained an unofficial stopping place, on prior request to the traincrew, into the 1990s.
