Scope and Content Signal Box, Callander Station, Station Road, Callander, Stirling The first station in Callander was opened in 1858 by the Dunblane, Doune & Callander Railway. It was replaced by this station when the first part of the Callander & Oban Railway was opened in 1870. It may well have been extended subsequently. This shows Callander East signal box, built to control the east end of the station, including the goods yard and, originally, the locomotive shed. It is quite a large box, and still retained its lever frame in 1967. The section of the Callander & Oban Railway between Callander and Crianlarich was closed in 1965, and quickly lifted. This station and the track to Dunblane were retained a little longer, but the track has been lifted and the station and signal box have gone completely. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
