Old photograph of the railway station in Blackford located five miles from Auchterarder, Perthshire, Scotland. The Scottish Central Railway opened its line between Stirling and Perth, including a station at Blackford, in 1848. A station was also opened in 1851 for curling matches in the nearby loch at Carsebreck, this was used 25 times and eventually closed in 1935, the final match attracting some 2576 competitors.
