A four-car “80” class set (88, 766, 732, 81), working the 08.00 Londonderry – Belfast Central, approaching the site of the former Knockmore Jct Image The level crossing and junction had been replaced by the third line to Lisburn Image and Image but the old alignment was still marked by a short stretch of concrete sleepers (middle). The yellow stickers read “Citytrack” – a name then used for marketing and advertising “Take the easy way there, take the easy way back, take your local Citytrack”. Image shows a more recent view (August 2011). The Google map shows a non-existent station called “Knockmore”.
