There seems to have been a station at Kildrummie, mainly for the benefit of the Earl of Cawdor. I haven't been able to find out exactly where it was.

We now access the line of the Inverness and Perth Junction Railway, ignoring the triangular station of Forres, in the same way that we ignore the similar shaped station of Carnforth that also has platform faces still in use.

This particular station on the Inverness and Nairn Railway is not often made reference to, even by RAILSCOT, who are usually forthcoming with interesting snippets of information on such private use stations. All that I have ascertained is that in its very short life, it was originally called Cawdor, but in 1857, it was renamed Kildrummie.

Cawdor/Kildrummie was in public use between 1855 and 1858 so I would suggest it could be included. It continued as a private station until about 1880 (this according to the Disused Stations website)

In the Disused Stations website on the stations on the Inveness and Nairn Railway, Nick Catford in the end-of-article summary link to all the stations has stated they never wrote an article on that private station to which you allude as they did on the other stations on the line.
RAILSCOT do not show that station on their Inverness and Nairn RDT nor do they mention it in the body of the line article summation
ADJUDICATION DECISION
Since this posting was written, an entry has now been made in the body matter of the Wikipedia article on the Inverness and Nairn Railway about this station and it now appears upon the accompanying template RDT
