    Have found some Killin Junction Station pics which you may not have found in your searches. 

     

    Go to www.topticl.com and on the first page go to 'photographs for sale' and then 'on line gallery' and then to 'railway environment' and finally to 'stations'.

     

    There are all in a bit of a jumble but if you scroll through thumbnails you should a few of Killin Junction there - all appear to be taken after the line closure.  Have a look under the other headings on this website as there are other C+O images there too.  

     

    Of course you might have seen them before.

     

    With good wishes and trust you and the family are coping with the lock down.

     

    Regards

      Hi Alisdair

      just a consideration the C&OR was taken over by LMS. 
      according to the color the buildings of C&OR were combination of purple brown and duck-foot color 

      I found months web somebody create killin statio in this livery 

      I have seen different pictures from Killin station one that might be referring to the brown and orange 

      I also see Killin station an Loch Tay in a different livery. Could that be the LMS colors from later date. The light colors on these buildings same as is for Killin Junction  look like Portland stone. 

      as far as that can be seen due to old pictures.

      the signal box of Killin Junction had fade out I assume a green color with a kind of cream white. Hard to see in these picture. 

      The 4mt were in The last days of the branch I assume that the building have been at least one time repainted, which means that the era can have different liveries for the buildings.

      Best  Regards,

      Menno

      Hi Menno

       

      Nice little model.

       

      I suggest you have a look at https://www.stationcolours.com/scotland  which gives a good guide to the colours used on the Callander and Oban line.   

       

      I attach three of my own photographs of Killin Jct which might be of use.

       

      With all good wishes
