Askeaton railway station
Askeaton was a station which served Askeaton in County Limerick, Ireland.
==History==
The station was opened by the Waterford and Limerick and Limerick and Foynes railways, then absorbed into the Great Southern and Western Railway. In 1924 the Railways Act passed by the Oireachtas of the Irish Free State moved the station to the ''Great Southern Railway''. In 1925 another merger led to management by the Great Southern Railways. Then it was moved to the CIE by the (Transport Act 1944 ) from 1 January 1945, on nationalisation. The station was closed to passenger traffic by CIE on 4 February 1963 and freight on 2 December 1974.() Trains for Foynes continued to pass through Askeaton until the line effectively lost all its freight services in 2000. The line is still officially open to freight traffic, it has not seen a train since the annual weedspray train visited the line on 7 May 2002. The last known movement was on 9 January 2003 when a permanent way inspection car visited the line.
In an interview on Limerick's Live 95 fm on April 18, 2011, Kay McGuinness Chairperson of Shannon Foynes Port Company said that they are confident that the rail link could be reopened for €7 million, which was considerably less than initially quoted price of €30 million by Irish Rail following the involvement of consultants and it was now a do-able project.
On 10 February 2015, Irish Rail wrote to lineside neighbours informing them of plans over the next 6 weeks, to clear the line of vegetation in order to allow a condition survey and inspection of structures to take place. This to inform a study that they are undertaking on behalf of the Shannon Foynes Port Company into the re-establishment of rail freight traffic on the line.
