The important variable here is the religion of Hugh, as the marriage date you mention is prior to civil Registration (begun in 1864). You will need to delve into Church records. Eull Dunlop, 69 Galgorm Road, Ballymena, BT42 1AA is a local historian who has published photographic accounts of Ballymena. www.amazon.co.uk lists 37 pamphlets by this and associated authors. There may be a mention of the building of the railway there.
