Summary

Description
English: Site of Alloa station, 1991.
View eastward, towards Kinross Junction, Thornton Junction via Oakley and Dunferline Upper also via Culross and Dunfermline Lower, these being ex-NBR routes from Stirling, also ex-Caledonian services came from Larbert. This important junction station was closed on 7/10/68 - for goods not until 13/7/74, but happily this scene of desolation has passed, for a substantial new station was opened on 19/5/08, with a passenger service from Glasgow via Stirling over a line still kept open for coal traffic to Longannet Power Station on the Kincardine line - the half-rusted track seen here on the right. (See NS8893 : Alloa Station Junction by A.M. Jervis). Alloa station had lost its passenger services gradually: Dunfermline via Culross 7/7/30, Kinross Junction 15/6/64, Larbert 29/1/68, Stirling - Alloa - Oakley - Dunfermline 7/10/68.
