Inch Abbey Railway Station

Inch Abbey railway station (often shortened to just Inch) is a station on the Downpatrick and County Down Railway, a heritage railway in Northern Ireland. It is the terminus of the railway's North Line and serves Inch Abbey, a ruined monastery and local tourist attraction of Downpatrick notable for its use as a filming location in the HBO show Game of Thrones. The station is a simple island platform layout with a timber deck. The north platform face is on a through track, allowing locomotives to access a headshunt and run-around loop, whilst the south face is a bay platform slightly shorter than the through platform. When the station is open passengers purchase tickets and wait for their train in a parked-up railway carriage. The station has a small car park, picnic area, and toilet facilities. Most of the DCDR's trains run to here from Downpatrick railway station, such as the Easter, St. Patrick's Day and Summer steam trains. On these days, the buffet train is parked in the bay platform and passenger trains use the through platform.
