This station is on the Oban branch of the West Highland Line, originally part of the Callander and Oban Railway. FacilitiesStation facilities are somewhat basic, consisting of a shelter and a telephone for obtaining train running information. Platform lighting is installed. HistoryConnel Ferry station opened on 1 July 1880, when the final section of the Callander and Oban Railway, between Dalmally and Oban, came into use. The original layout at Connel Ferry comprised a crossing loop with platforms on either side, with some sidings on the north side. Considerable enlargement of the station took place in 1903, with the opening of the branch line to Ballachulish. The original Down platform became an island platform, with the Down Main line routed alongside the new south face, and the Up Main line (the original Down line) to its north. The former Up platform became the Branch Platform and a bay platform was constructed at its west end. A goods loop ran to the south of the Down Main line. A turntable was provided in the goods yard for turning the branch line locomotives.
