Ballysadare station was on the Midland Great Western Railway which became part of Irish Rail and it was served by the last independent railway in the British Isles, being the Sligo, Leitrim and Northern Counties Railway on the line to Enniskillen.[citation needed] The Burma Road or the Western Rail Corridor line to Claremorris Junction, Tuam and Galway was served from the station as well as Sligo station.
