Blairingone Siding

Opened on the Devon Valley Railway.

Description

A station was proposed for Blairingone and had considerable local support. In the area south of the line were freestone, ironstone and coal reserves. A siding was laid in, which allowed departure in both directions, on the south side of the line. From this a tramway ran south to the Blairingone Colliery. This coal work began with the opening of the Devon Valley Railway.
