Irish Rail has informed me that it has had some discussions with Louth County Council regarding the provision of a second railway station in Drogheda to the north of the town. No decision has been taken on the matter. Irish Rail has some operational concerns about the close proximity of the two stations. If a station were to be considered, it would have to be supported by high density housing developments.
