    I would agree with Fred that the first 3 are Crianlarich Lower Junction.

    The line to the left is the Callander & Oban line, via Glen Ogle (where the landslip was), Callendar and Doune to Dunblane, and was Caledonian, not North British. It closed in 1965.

    Tut tut Mr S - you can have "spelt" but not "spell"!
    It is also bad form to start a sentence with a conjunction.
