Carrigtwohill railway station serves the town of Carrigtwohill in County Cork.
It is a station on the Cork to Midleton commuter service. Passengers to Cobh change at Glounthaune station.[1]
The station is unstaffed but has a ticket vending machine. Its two platforms are both fully accessible.
History
The original station in Carrigtwohill was opened on 2 November 1859, but closed for goods traffic on 2 December 1974 and fully closed on 6 September 1976.[2] It was re-opened on 30 July 2009 as part of the newly refurbished Cork-Midleton line.[3]
Developments
The 2002 Cork Suburban Rail Feasibility Study proposed the construction of a new station approximately 3 miles (4.8 km) west of the existing station.[4][5] 'Carrigtwohill West' station was proposed to serve an industrial area west of Carrigtwohill, with IDA Ireland providing partial funding.[5] The project was cancelled in 2012.
