This was a single platform halt. It was built in connection with the nearby Faslane Military Port. The halt was also used to facilitate the transport prisoners of war to Inveruglas which was a halt for the Loch Sloy Hydroscheme (construction of Inveruglas Power Station and Loch Sloy Dam).
The location was high above the port.
Proposals exist to open a new station at Faslane. This site or the former station at Shandon could be used.
