Cobh railway station serves the town of Cobh on the Cork Suburban Rail line, where it is the end of the line. It is located in a red brick building adjacent to the town's Cobh Heritage Centre. It is famous for being the station where hundreds of survivors of the RMS Lusitania disaster left the town of Cobh after surviving the sinking.
The station opened 10 March 1862 and was closed for goods traffic on 3 November 1975.[1]
