Achanalt railway station is a geographically remote railway station on the Kyle of Lochalsh Line, serving the village of Achanalt in the north of Scotland. The station is from , between Lochluichart and Achnasheen. ScotRail, who manage the station, operate all services. History The station was opened by the Dingwall and Skye Railway, but operated from the outset by the Highland Railway. Taken into the London, Midland and Scottish Railway during the Grouping of 1923, the line then passed on to the Scottish Region of British Railways on nationalisation in 1948. When Sectorisation was introduced by British Rail, the station became part of ScotRail until the Privatisation of British Rail. Facilities Facilities here, as with many other stations down the line, are minimal, comprising just a shelter, some bike racks and a small car park. The station is step-free to the car park. As there are no facilities to purchase tickets, passengers must buy one in advance, or from the guard on the train. Passenger volume The statistics cover twelve month periods that start in April. Service Four trains each way call (on request) on weekdays/Saturdays, and one each way all year on Sundays, plus a second from May to late September only.
