History

The original station was located on nearby Seafield Road. As it proved inconvenient for residents, it was moved to its present location on 6 May 1882 under the name Killiney & Ballybrack and replaced separate stations at Killiney and Ballybrack, the Ballybrack suffix was dropped in 1921. The original Killiney station had itself replaced the earlier Obelisk Hill, Killiney station on 1 May 1858.[1]
