Yes, and some from Killin.I looked at a contemporary map and you crossed into Dunbarton a short way south and into Argyll a short way west, while to the north there is nothing, so I presume that pupils from Crianlarich and Tyndrum would have weekly boarded.
Yes. The school timetable still reflects that with a later start to the day than most other schools.I presume that the school day was arranged to allow them to arrive on the 06.05 Oban, at least on Monday.
Of course, when the railway was operating then the school was somewhat closer to the station as well (circa 5mins walk).
