Text copied for clarity: Carrickmore Train Station which was located at the junction of the Sixmilecross and Ballygawley roads just over a mile from Carrickmore near 'The Bush'. The railway age in County Tyrone lasted for 107 years from 1858 to 1965 and that main line from Portadown to Derry via Dungannon and Omagh came to be known by generations of railway users and operatives as the "Derry Road". This track was the most important railway route in Ulster and the little intermediate stations at Annaghmore, Vernersbridge, Trew and Moy, Donaghmore, Pomeroy, Carrickmore, Sixmilecross and Beragh were among the aristocracy of railway centres, daily witness to mainline express trains, local services and evening and night goods trains. The station opening on 2 September 1861 and closed on 15 February 1965. Pictured here Image]
