from Thom's directory

1852 - no railway station mentioned
  (I think it may not have reached all the way to Bray at that time)
1863 - John Tozier - Stationmaster
1870s, early 80s - John Tozier - Railway Station, superintendent
1894 - Michael O'Meara - Railway Station, superintendent
1904 - Michael O'Meara - Railway Station, superintendent
1911 - two station master living in Bray (census)
 Richard Roberts' Albert Lane
 Joseph McKittrick, West View Terrace

In the Thom's for later years (from 1914), details like the station masters etc are not listed separately and much more difficult to locate. I have not found any later details at the moment. Do you have any surnames you are particularly interested in ?
