Baltimore railway station was the terminus of the Baltimore Extension Railway in County Cork, Ireland.

History

The station was opened for passenger traffic on 2 May 1893. It consisted of a brick built station building with slate tiled roof and fully surfaced platforms. It was located at the southern terminus of the branch line from Skibbereen and was the most southerly railway station in Ireland.

Regular passenger services were withdrawn on 1 April 1961.

The station building, platform and a semaphore railway signal remained, disused but in situ, in June 2014.
