The station opened on 6 October 1986, and is very close to Botanic Station[3]
Service
On weekdays, there is a half-hourly service on the Bangor Line between Belfast Grand Central and Bangor, with extra trains at peak times. The Derry~Londonderry Line operates an hourly service between Belfast Grand Central and Derry~Londonderry, with additional trains to Coleraine at peak times. The Larne Line operates a half-hourly service to Larne Harbour and Whitehead, with the terminus alternating between the two every half-hour. Extra trains operate to Carrickfergus and Larne Town at peak times.
On Saturdays, service patterns remain largely similar except without any additional peak-time trains.
On Sundays, the Bangor Line reduces to an hourly service. The Derry~Londonderry Line alternates its outbound terminus every hour between Derry~Londonderry and Portrush, resulting in a two-hourly service to stations beyond Coleraine. The Larne Line also reduces to hourly but continues alternating the terminus between Larne Harbour and Whitehead, resulting in a two-hourly service to stations beyond Whitehead.
During the construction of Grand Central station, City Hospital acted as a temporary terminus for Derry~Londonderry Line and Larne Line trains, with services reversing at Adelaide Depot.
