Richhill railway station was on the Ulster Railway in Northern Ireland.
The Ulster Railway opened the station on 1 March 1848.
It closed on 10 October 1957.
There has been discussion about reopening the line between Portadown and Armagh. Therefore, a new station at Richhill would be likely, probably close to Stonebridge or Fruitfield.
There is potential to reopen railway lines in Northern Ireland including the line to Armagh.
