Sandycove and Glasthule railway station
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sandycove and Glasthule railway station (Irish: Stáisiún Chuas an Ghainimh agus Glas Tuathail) serves the suburban areas of Sandycove (on the coast) and Glasthule (just inland) south of Dun Laoghaire in County Dublin, Ireland. The building is on a bridge as the rail line is in a cutting. Because of the station's altitude at sea level and the subsequent moisture of the earth, the track at and surrounding this station is laid on solid concrete rather than wooden sleepers.
The station opened on 11 October 1855.[1]
