Pic also shows Ballymoney Railway station. Also the shunting/carriage yard (now gone/bus depot and bussness yard) and coming in from almost top left the Ballycastle/Armoy/Dervock/Stranocum line, also closed decommissioned in Early fifties, station still remains as part of the Belfast to Derry line.
