(Location cited as NH 832 057). Kincraig Station, opened 1863 by the Inverness and Perth Junction Rly. Formerly a two-platform through station, the face of the up platform has been removed, though the lattice-girder footbridge survives, as does the down-platform building, a single-storey wooden structure, with a 1-storey and attic station house adjoining.
