Perth Railway Station

Johnathan and I had a good Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) meeting in Dundee today.

Here is a blip of Perth Railway Station, which was opened (as Perth General) by the Scottish Central Railway in 1848. Originally the terminus of the SCR main line from Greenhill Junction near Glasgow, it soon became a junction of some importance with the arrival of the Dundee and Perth Railway from Dundee (following the completion of a bridge across the River Tay), the Edinburgh and Northern Railway from Ladybank on the Fife coast and the Scottish Midland Junction Railway from Forfar within months.

Subsequent construction by the Perth and Dunkeld Railway and the Perth, Almond Valley and Methven Railway added further lines.

A nice Victorian station with some tacky modern bits stuck on.

I hope it is not too windy and wet at your end.
