Old photograph of the Railway Station, Stirling, Scotland. Stirling railway station is a railway station located on the former Caledonian Railway main line between Glasgow and Perth, Perthshire. It is the junction for the branch line to Alloa and Dunfermline in Fife, via Kincardine and is also served by trains on the Edinburgh to Dunblane Line and long distance services to Dundee & Aberdeen and to Inverness via the Highland Main Line. Stirling was first connected to the Scottish Central Railway in 1848. Lines were subsequently opened by the Stirling and Dunfermline Railway in 1853, and by the Forth and Clyde Junction Railway to Balloch Central three years later. Through services to and from the Callander and Oban Railway in the Highlands also served the station from 1870. The current station buildings were opened in 1916 following a major rebuild by the Caledonian Railway.
