Knockmore railway station was a station on the Belfast–Newry railway line. The station served the suburb of Knockmore in Lisburn, County Antrim, Northern Ireland. The Great Northern Railway (GNR) opened Knockmore station as a halt in 1932.[1] Northern Ireland Railways (NIR) closed the station on 25 March 2005.[citation needed]
Knockmore station had two platforms. One platform was served by "Up" trains only on the service from Belfast Lanyon Place (Known as Belfast Central at the time) via Lisburn to Portadown, while the other platform was served by trains in both directions on the Belfast – Lisburn – Antrim – Derry~Londonderry service. "Down" trains travelling from Portadown to Belfast could not serve Knockmore as it was the middle line with no platform.
