Trooperslane railway station serves Trooperslane in County Antrim, Northern Ireland.
Trooperslane is a hamlet between Greenisland and Carrickfergus. The station was opened on 11 April 1848.[1] For many years it was served by a handful of trains Mondays to Saturdays only. When Northern Ireland Railways introduced a new clock-face timetable, the station saw a Sunday service, with nearly all trains every day serving the station. Trooperslane also has a level crossing, supervised by closed-circuit television.
