The GNR(I) line from Knockmore Jct to Castlewellan closed in 1955. Ballyroney was one of the principal loading points for cattle bound for the ports of NW England. The station is a private house and part of the platform is now a lawn. Otherwise it remains more or less in its original condition. This is the view towards Castlewellan.
