Lochluichart railway station is arailway station on theKyle of Lochalsh Line, serving the village of Lochluichart in the north ofScotland. The station is located at the north edge of Loch Luichart, 17 miles 20 chains (27.8 km) fromDingwall, betweenGarve andAchanalt.^[4]ScotRail, which manages the station, operates all services.^{[citation needed]}

The station was opened asLochluichart High^[3] by theDingwall and Skye Railway on 1 August 1871 as a private station for Lady Ashburton on the Lochluichart Estate. It became a public station by 1887.^[5] Others suggest that it opened as a private station (under the nameLochluichart Lodge) in August 1870, becoming public (and renamed toLochluichart High) in 1871.^[6]

In 1949, Lochluichart was planned to be relocated to allow the flooding of the area by the Glascarnoch-Luichart-Torr Achilty hydroelectric scheme.^[7] On 3 May 1954, a new station was opened asLochluichart^[3] as a result of ahydro electric scheme raising the level of Loch Luichart, constructed of red sandstone. The deviation required about 2 miles (3.2 km) on stone-pitched embankments and in rock cuttings, a 100-foot (30 m) bridge over the River Conon and a 36-foot (11 m) bridge.^[8]

Facilities are incredibly basic, comprising just a shelter, a help point and a small car park. The station is step-free.^[9] As there are no facilities to purchase tickets, passengers must buy one in advance, or from the guard on the train.^{[citation needed]}

The statistics cover twelve month periods that start in April.

Four trains each way call (on request) on weekdays/Saturdays and one each way all year on Sundays, plus a second from May to late September only.^[11][12]
