Malahide, North Co.Dublin, is
located on the main Dublin-Belfast line, which had opened as far as
Drogheda in 1844. The present station
at Malahide was built entirely by the Great Northern Railway, who
constructed a typical yellow brick station building on the down
platform, designed by W.H Mills, as well as the footbridge and signal
cabin on the up platform. There's also the typical GNR style stations
masters house adjacent to the station. All of these are well maintained,
and the station building retains its GNR canopy. In 2000 Malahide became
the second northern terminus of the electrified DART service, at at the
south end of the station the EMUs(DARTs) are stabled in two sidings. The
platforms were lengthened and the signal cabin was taken fully out of
use, having been in a period of 'switched out' status in the
1990s. North of the station the line crosses the Malahide Estuary on a
causeway. |
