History

The station initially opened on 1 April 1901 but closed on 1 December 1910 with the termination of Kingsbridge to Amiens Street 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.

Dublin Metro

Drumcondra was planned as an interchange stop on the proposed Metro North line of the Dublin Metro.
In March 2018, after the revised plans of the new Dublin Metro, Metrolink, it is now proposed that the Metro will link up with a new station, Glasnevin, on the Western Commuter line, one stop east from Drumcondra.
