Duirinish railway station is a remote railway station on the Kyle of Lochalsh Line near the settlement of Duirinish in the Highlands, northern Scotland. The station is approximately 2 miles (3 km) inland of Scotland's west coast, near Loch Lundie. The station is 59 miles 58 chains (96.1 km) from Dingwall, between Kyle of Lochalsh and Plockton. ScotRail, who manage the station, operate all services here.




History



The station was built by the Kyle of Lochalsh Extension (Highland Railway) between Stromeferry and Kyle of Lochalsh, opening on 2 November 1897.




Facilities


Facilities here, like many other stations on the line, are incredibly basic, consisting just of a shelter, a help point, some bike racks and a bench, although the station does have step-free access. 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.




Services


Four trains each way call (on request) on weekdays and Saturdays. On Sundays, there is only one train each way, plus a second from May to late September only.
