Phoenix Park railway station is a railway station in Dublin, Ireland. It is owned by Coras Iompair Éireann and operated by Iarnrod Éireann. It opened on 21 January 2008.
Location
The station is on the Dublin - Sligo railway line (see Rail transport in Ireland), located between Ashtown railway station and Castleknock railway station. The station is adjacent to the Navan Road (the N3 road), between the roundabout at the junction of Castleknock Road and Ashtown Road and the roundabout at the junction of Auburn Avenue and New Dunsink Lane. The station was built by the developers of the Phoenix Park Racecourse Apartments (built, as their name implies on the site of the old Phoenix Park racecourse) although the station itself is neither on the grounds of the former racecourse nor the Phoenix Park proper. Access to the station is via a grade-separated junction off the N3, however, as of 21 January only traffic on the eastbound carriageway can access the station.
Design and Services
Similar to both Dun Laoghaire railway station and Leixlip Louisa Bridge railway station, the station building is on the bridge that connects the two platforms. From here there are lifts and stairs down to each platform.
The station is served by Western Commuter services. Both main services (westbound to Maynooth and Longford and eastbound to Dublin city centre and Docklands branch services (from Clonsilla to Docklands) call at the station. InterCity services do not call at the station, although one can interchange at either Maynooth or Dublin Connolly railway station.
