Beasdale railway station

Beasdale railway station is a railway station serving Glen Beasdale in the Highland region of Scotland. This station is on the West Highland Line, sited 28 mi from the former Banavie Junction, between Lochailort and Arisaig. ScotRail manage the station and operate all services.

History
It was originally a private station for the nearby Arisaig House, and the station was thus originally opened on 1 April 1901, but was fully open to the public from 6 September 1965.

The former station building is now a private holiday cottage.

Facilities
The station is equipped with a bench, a shelter and a help point, with a small car park adjacent to the station.

Passenger volume
Beasdale was one of six railway stations in Britain to see zero passengers in the 2020/21 period, due to decreased travel throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. It is therefore Britain's joint-least-used station alongside Abererch, Llanbedr, Sampford Courtenay, Stanlow and Thornton and Sugar Loaf.

It has been noted to consistently be one of the lesser-used stations across Scotland. The statistics cover twelve month periods that start in April.

Services
There are four trains per day to Mallaig on Monday to Saturday, and three trains on Sunday. In the opposite direction, there are three through trains per day to Glasgow Queen Street (via Fort William) and one train per day to Fort William with a connecting train to Glasgow, Edinburgh and London Euston. On Sunday there are two Glasgow trains and one to Fort William.
