Originally named "Killin", this was the terminus of the first section of the line to be opened, in 1870. It was built with a single platform. In 1873, the line was extended to Tyndrum, at which time the engine shed and turntable were relocated to there from Killin. It was renamed "Glenoglehead" in 1886 when a railway was opened to Killin itself. The signal box closed when the railway closed in 1965.
Line opened between Callander and Killin (i.e. Glenoglehead). Signal box opened.
Maj. Gen. Hutchinson (Board of Trade) reported on his inspection of the Callander & Oban Railway from Killin to Tyndrum. Working was to be by train staff, of which notice was required. All facing points should be set and locked in the reverse position from the existing setting. A re-inspection would be necessary when the works were complete.
Line opened between Killin (i.e. Glenoglehead) and Tyndrum.
Maj. Gen. Hutchinson (Board of Trade) re-inspected, finding that most of the requirements of 21 July 1873 had been complied with, but the points levers were not of a satisfactory character and the engineer had promised to substitute a different kind.
Maj. Gen. Hutchinson (Board of Trade) reported on re-inspection that points levers of a superior description to those before in use had been supplied, although even the present ones were somewhat deficient in weight and would require careful maintenance to ensure their working properly.
Killin renamed "Glenoglehead" when Killin Railway opened.
Glenoglehead station closed.
Signal box replaced and signals interlocked.
