Ticketing
There are two ticket vending machines at the station. Cheaper tickets may be obtained online at http://www.irishrail.ie. However, you may need to go to a different station to collect tickets purchased online in advance of travel, as it is not possible to specify Edgeworthstown as the station at which the purchased ticket is to be collected.
