Drumcondra is a railway station serving Drumcondra, Dublin, Ireland. It is elevated with just the entrance on the main Drumcondra road.

The station initially opened on 1 April 1901 but closed on 1 December 1910[1] with the termination of Kingsbridge (now Heuston Station) to Amiens Street (now Connolly Station) services. Part of the original building was demolished in late 1918. It reopened on 2 March 1998 as a station on the Maynooth/Longford commuter line. It is not served by trains serving Docklands railway station. Drumcondra is the nearest railway station for Croke Park.
