Errol railway station served the village of Errol, Perth and Kinross, Scotland from 1847 to 1985 on the Dundee and Perth Railway.

History

The station opened on 24 May 1847 by the Dundee and Perth Railway. It was situated north of Glencarse and south of Inchture Village. The goods yard was to the north and it consisted of three sidings. The signal box was to the left. The station closed to both passengers and goods traffic on 30 September 1985. One of the sidings still survives, although it is largely overgrown, and the signal box survives.[1][2]
