Howth is a two-platform terminal station. Due to the lack of a run-round or turntable facility, on the rare occasion that a locomotive-hauled train arrives (such as on a railtour), a second locomotive must follow the train light engine from Dublin to haul the train back from Howth.^{[citation needed]}

The ticket office is open from 05:45-00:30 AM, Monday to Sunday.^{[citation needed]}
