Today is the 49th anniversary of the British Embassy burning. Tempus fugit.

As the shop sign says "Royal Enfield Cycles", that's a retailer/repair shop for those motorbikes.

James Cycle Co. on sign. I have no idea if that motorcycle is a James, but if it is, it is likely to be after 1904 ... "1904 saw the arrival of what was claimed to be the first ever loop frame that provided a sturdier mounting for what was now an F.N. engine." From - famousjamesmotorcycleclub.webs.com/history.htm

Bernard McLaughlin, spirit dealer is in 1907 directory, not 1901.

Looks like the local cycle shop. Signs for The James Cycle Co., Royal Enfield Cycles, Pratts motor spirit (not to be confused with Spratts dog cakes next door) and BSA (Birmingham Small Arms) with their three stacked rifles logo. The guy on the left reminds me of Sean Connery

If I recall correctly, the WR&S pics were all taken in 1900-05 and acquired as a batch by Eason.

Great image and capture.

Thanks, Nice to see what it looked like as only the platforms are left now. The Derry/Londonderry train still goes through the station but the branch line from Limavady to Dungiven closed in 1952. I'll try and get a photo of it from this position to compare after work. Up until now the only view of the station I could find was this computer representation. eiretrains.com/Photo_Gallery/Irish%20Trainz/Limavady%20Ju...

On second thoughts the links posted by guliolopez show just how little is left of this once busy station. The station was opened by the Londonderry and Coleraine Railway as Newton Junction on 1 March 1855. It was renamed Limavady Junction on 1 October 1875. At that time, new station buildings were provided to designs by the architect John Lanyon. It closed on 17 October 1976 and the buildings demolished in the early 1980's.

guliolopez Thanks for mapping info - though Flickr map was not impressed ("unable to locate"), so I had to be a bit approximate...
