Timoleague
Timoleague station site, looking in the direction of Ballinascarthy on 30th June 2020. The single platform ran approximately where the pavement is now located. The line to Timoleague was built by the Ballinascarthy and Timoleague Junction Light Railway and opened in 1890 with the remaining section to Courtmacsherry being constructed by the Timoleague and Courtmacsherry Extension Light Railway in 1891. The line never formed part of the CB&SCR but did become part of Great Southern Railways in 1925. Regular passenger services ended in 1947 but excursions and freight traffic continued until final closure in 1961.
