Lets see if you can guess which line i am on!

- I am in a place where the great Robert Burns was born and his anniversery is celebrated yearly

- I am on a line which has no OHLE, Classes 156, 37's and 66's, including an odd charter which visits yearly otherwise known as the Jacobite

- I am in a place which has no signals, only at the start of the line, after that you must gain a token to gain access to the next station.

- Finally,,, The line boasts fantastic scenery

I first thought it'd be the Cambrian Coast, but then I remembered that 66s would be too heavy for Barmouth Bridge...

My guess is the West Highland Line.

West Highland Extention, as the West Highland line does have OHLE in the Glasgow suburbs as far as the junction for Hellensburugh Upper/Central.

The Jacobite steam train is not yearly, it's a regular daily service in Summer! It's the UK's last remaining daily, timetabled, steam service on the National Rail network. It isn't a charter and it appears in the National Rail Timetable. Unfortunately normal tickets are not accepted on it (although that is not made clear in the NRT).
