History
Opened by the Cork and Bandon (Bantry Extension) Railway, by the beginning of the 20th century the station was run by the Great Southern and Western Railway. It was absorbed into the Great Southern Railways in 1925.
The station was then nationalised, passing on to the Córas Iompair Éireann as a result of the Transport Act 1944[1] which took effect from 1 January 1945. It was closed by this management.
gollark: ApioServ is a full-featured replacement for the nonfunctional "atheme" instance you ran, written in Nim and using my great* implementation of the ngircd server to server protocol.
gollark: Also ApioServ, not that that's operating right now.
gollark: Anyway, there's a program which sends system load/CPU/RAM use alerts on APIONET somewhere from the HNode™, the RSAPI IRC interface for IncDec/now playing/nothing else whatsoever, Testbot, and AutoBotRobot's IRC interfacing.
gollark: It's probably only 30 at most. Perfectly reasonable.
gollark: I think I operate something like four things you can technically call IRC bots now.
