History

The station opened on 30 May 1847. The Howth tram ran between here and Sutton railway station (all the way around Howth Head) until 1959. Within the station buildings (although not accessible from the platforms) are a bar and restaurant and a convenience store.[1][2]

Operations

Summarize
Perspective

Howth is a two-platform terminal station. Due to the lack of a run-round or turntable facility, on the rare occasion that a locomotive-hauled train arrives (such as on a railtour), a second locomotive must follow the train light engine from Dublin to haul the train back from Howth.[citation needed]

The ticket office is open from 05:45-00:30 AM, Monday to Sunday.[3]

Train Services

From Monday to Saturday, a DART train leaves the station towards the City Centre via Dublin Connolly every 15 to 40 minutes, with the last train departing Howth at 23:55. On Sundays, the intervals between trains increase to 20 to 45 minutes.[4]

Bus Services

Both the H3 and Route 6 buses are operated by Dublin Bus. The H3 bus visits the station on average twice an hour in each direction, except on Sundays. The Route 6 bus runs hourly from the station, connecting Howth to the city centre.[5][6]
