Finaghy station looking towards Lisburn. Taken to be as close as possible to Image from more than 39 years earlier. The line opened in 1839. Finaghy station came much later – in 1907. The bridge (Finaghy Road North) was built in 1911 with a third arch intended (the story goes) in case it ever became necessary to extend the Third Line Image to Lisburn. It was substantially altered in 2008 by “replacing existing walls and fences . . . . with high standard safety barriers”.
