Scope and Content Dunkeld and Birnam Station, Perthshire This station was built as the terminus of the Perth and Dunkeld Railway, and was designed by Andrew Heiton, a Perth architect.. The 'Tudor' style was popular at the time. The building originally incorporated a train shed. This view shows the railway side of the station, with an Inverness to Glasgow train entering the south-bound platform. The glazed awning replaced the train shed. Note the lower than standard platforms. Portable steps were provided to assist passengers. This became a through station in 1863 when the Inverness and Perth Junction Railway was opened between here and Forres. It subsequently lost its train shed. It has been unmanned since the 1980s.
