The new station was on a higher level, as the line had to climb steeply to reach the summit about 0.6 miles (1 km) to the west.

Services to Callander & Dunblane over the old C&O route via Strathyre ceased on 27 September 1965 - they had been scheduled for withdrawal as a result of the Beeching Axe from 1 November that year, but ended five weeks prior to that date following a landslide in Glen Ogle that blocked the trackbed.

The station is equipped with a shelter, a bench, bike racks, a help point and a car park, to which there is step-free access from the platform.

[citation needed] The statistics cover twelve month periods that start in April.

There is an additional train each way in summer only, which runs from/to Edinburgh Waverley (rather than Glasgow Queen Street).
