Description
This distillery, opened 1898, is to the east of the former Aberfeldy station. It was served by a pair of sidings on the south side of the railway, approached from the west. The railway formerly passed by the north side of the distillery. To the west access to the sidings was controlled from a signal cabin, not a block post, open from 1897 to 1935. The box was on the north side of the line. The siding was installed in 1897.
A short portion of loading bank remains here along with a length of track. This is host to tank engine number 2073 'Dailuaine' built by Andrew Barclay, Sons & Co. at the Caledonia Works, Kilmarnock in 1939. This locomotive spent its working life at Dailuaine Distillery.
