Portadown railway station serves Portadown in County Armagh, Northern Ireland. The station was opened on 12 September 1842 and closed to goods traffic on 4 January 1965. [cite web | title= Portadown| work=Railscot - Irish Railways | url=http://www.railscot.co.uk/Ireland/Irish_railways.pdf | accessdate=2007-08-28] The present station opened in 1970, at a time when the station was called "Portadown - Craigavon West", a title that was subtly dropped after the 'new city' failed to materialise.
