The railway line became obsolete with the development of the roads systems in rural Ireland. As a result the station closed on the 1st of April 1959 when the railway ceased operation.
The building is still standing today and it has been repurposed as a residential property.
The Drumshambo Railway Station is a good example of Victorian architecture.
