Nothing is now visible of the station and the current edition of the OS 1:10,560 map (1968) shows that it has been built over. The Slamannan Railway Station is depicted on the the 1st and 2nd editions of the OS 6-inch map (Stirlingshire 1864 and 1899, sheet xxxv), apparently being enlarged between the 1st and 2nd editions. The revised edition of the same map (Stirlingshire 1922, sheet xxxv, revised 1913-14) also depicts the station but with a slightly different arrangement of buildings to that on the 2nd edition (ibid).
