Formerly a two-platform through station with a well preserved, though disused, standard Scottish Central building on the down platform.

This intermediate station on the Stirling-Perth line of the former Caledonian Rly was opened (by the Scottish Central Rly) on 22 May 1848. It was closed to regular passenger traffic on 11 June 1956, the line itself remaining in regular passenger use.

Auchterarder station, which is depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Perthshire 1866, sheet cxviii), is no longer in use. Three sidings and what is presumably the remains of a platform are depicted on the current edition of the OS 1:10000 map (1992).
