Crawfordsburn railway station served Crawfordsburn Hospital (which closed in the early 1990s)[1] and Crawfordsburn Country Park in County Down, Northern Ireland. It was situated between Carnalea and Helen's Bay. The halt closed in 1997 because of low passenger numbers.[2] The platforms were removed in 2001 during the relaying of the Belfast-Bangor railway line.
