Troja railway station opened in 1896,[1] closed in 1975,[2] reopened in 1977 and closed for good in 1978. It was on the Bog Walk to Port Antonio branch line, 31 miles (50 km) from the Kingston terminus (in Jamaica),[4] and served the surrounding agricultural community, providing a means for bananas to reach and be exported from Port Antonio.[1] It was vandalised some time after closure.[3]
The station was a two-story wooden building with sash windows, the upper floor being smaller than the lower and centrally placed.[5] The pitched roof over the ground floor was extended to form a canopy over the platform on all four sides of the building.[5] The upper story had a gable end roof.[5]
In addition to the platform serving the through line there was a second platform on the opposite side of the station building on a passing loop and, most likely, freight sidings as well.[5]
