History

The station was opened on 13 July 1863 and closed on 30 April 1956.[1]

It had a two-road goods shed, three sidings, two passenger platforms and a signal cabin.

Viaduct

Immediately to the west of the station is Dromore Viaduct, which once carried trains across the River Lagan. At 74 ft tall and 7 arches long, it was the most noteworthy piece of engineering on the line.

The site today

The station building is in use today as a children's nursery, whilst part of the platform and the former station yard are used by a mechanics. The viaduct still stands, and Dromore Town Park passes beneath it.
