A small station was also constructed slightly further north by the Ballymena & Larne Railway on (appropriately) Narrow Gauge Road.

In the 1970s, road improvement plans necessitated the closure and re-siting of Larne station.

A new track alignment was constructed on reclaimed land further out into Larne Lough, diverging from the original C&LR alignment at a point southeast of the original Larne station, and moving back onto the existing Harbour line at what is now Glynnview Avenue.

Larne Town was then constructed as a single-platform station on this new alignment with a small ticket office, opening in June 1974 - the suffix "Town" being added at this time to help distinguish it from Larne Harbour station.

On Sundays there is a service every two hours in either direction to Larne Harbour or Belfast Grand Central .
