When the railway opened in 1870, a station named "Lochearnhead" was established at a location two miles away from Lochearnhead village. It originally had just a single platform. A crossing loop and a second platform were provided a few years after opening. The station was renamed "Balquhidder" in 1904, when the Lochearnhead, St. Fillans and Comrie Railway reached Lochearnhead village.
Line opened between Callander and Killin (i.e. Glenoglehead). Signal box opened.

Lt. Col. Von Donop (Board of Trade) reported on his inspection of a new temporary facing connection added at the Up end of the Up Loop, leading to a siding on the Up side of the line. The points and the signals were worked from the existing Station Ground Frame, which contained 14 levers, all in use. He required a detecting arrangement for the points when they were lying for the Main Line, similar to that provided for them when they were lying for the Siding.
New junction opened to facilitate construction of new railway to Lochearnhead.
