I notice that according to the sign outside the station that it is Botanic Train Station rather than Botanic Railway Station.
This year I used the public transport system in Belfast for the first time and I used the Botanic station a number of times. I also visited Great Victoria and Central.
Botanic railway station serves the Botanic area in south Belfast and is frequently used by students attending Queen's University Belfast. It is also near Shaftesbury Square which is along Botanic Avenue. It is named after the nearby Belfast Botanic Gardens. It is one of the four stations located in the city centre, the others being City Hospital, Great Victoria Street, and Central.
The station opened on 4 November 1976 and is very close to City Hospital Station.
Passengers can alight here for the Ulster Museum, which is situated on the edge of Botanic Gardens.
On Mondays to Saturdays, there is a half-hourly service towards Belfast Central and Bangor, or Great Victoria Street and Portadown on Bangor/Portadown Line services, with extra trains at peak times.
There is also a half-hourly Larne Line service to Great Victoria Street in one direction, or Whitehead and Larne Harbour in the other, with extra services to Carrickfergus at peak times.
Londonderry [Derry] Line services call hourly at Botanic, operating to Great Victoria Street in one direction, and Londonderry [Derry] Waterside or Coleraine in the other.
On Sundays, the Bangor, Portadown and Larne Line services all reduce to hourly operation. Derry Line services reduce to two-hourly operation.
The timetable allows 3 minutes for the trains to travel between Belfast Central and Botanic.
At one stage, the cross border Enterprise service to Dublin Connolly served Botanic, but no longer stops at the station.
Using my 60mm double stacked solar scope and Skyris 618M on a minitower pro I captured two AVI (one for proms and the other for limb detail). Stacked in Registax and used layers in Photoshop to combine the two.

Approximate map route ... using Google Maps, you can specify 20 way points between destinations. This was the best I could do to maintain a close approximation to our route. I opted for more accuracy west of the Mississippi River.
Start Date: June 10, 1979 George Washington Bridge, New York City
End Date: August 9, 1979 Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
The biggest difference is that I couldn't route between Ludington, MI and Manitowoc, WI via the ferry across Lake Michigan (the Google route takes you through Chicago, which we did not do on our ride). A second big difference is that Google Maps takes us through Scranton, PA as we leave NYC towards Buffalo, NY ... we actually traveled north along the Hudson River (9W) , through the Catskills and Finger Lakes Region to Buffalo. I just ran out of way points to represent that.
Still, Google Maps provides a distance of 3907 miles ... our odometer read 3825.
