Cookstown railway station served Cookstown in County Tyrone in Northern Ireland. The Belfast and Ballymena Railway (BBR) opened the station on 10 November 1856 as the terminus of an extension to their existing Randalstown branch line. In 1860 the BBR became the Belfast and Northern Counties Railway, which would go on to be absorbed by the Midland Railway in 1903, becoming the Northern Counties Committee (NCC). It was closed to passengers by the Ulster Transport Authority on 28 August 1950 and to goods on 2 May 1955.
