(1893–1951)
Summary
A new crossing loop was established at St. Bride's in 1893 to split the section between Callander West and Strathyre. John Anderson's desire to open a station here was thwarted by landowner objections. A switching-out facility was provided in 1921. For a period, a siding had existed on the Down side. The crossing loop and signal box closed in 1951.
