Background

History

The station was opened by the Belfast and Ballymena Railway on 10 November 1856 when they extended their Randalstown branch line to Cookstown. In 1860 the BBR became the Belfast and Northern Counties Railway (BNCR), which would go on to be absorbed by the Midland Railway in 1903, becoming the Northern Counties Committee (NCC). The station buildings were designed by the architect Charles Lanyon. It was closed to passengers by the Ulster Transport Authority on 28 August 1950 and to goods on 2 May 1955.
