Criccieth railway station serves the seaside town of Criccieth on the Llŷn Peninsula in Gwynedd, Wales.

History

The station opened in 1867.^[1]

Until the line between Bangor and Afonwen was closed during the 1960s there was a through service in the summer to and from London Euston via Crewe, Chester, Llandudno Junction and Caernarvon; the Pwllheli portion was detached at Afonwen and the forward coaches proceeded to Portmadoc (the spellings are those used at the time). There was also a summer service between London Paddington and Pwllheli, via Birmingham Snow Hill, Shrewsbury and Machynlleth.

Formerly a two-platform station with a passing loop, this was taken out of use when the signal box closed on 16 October 1977, though the redundant track remained in place for several years. The station is now a single platform, unstaffed halt.{{sfn|Mitchell|Smith|2010|loc=Photos 81-3 & Map XXII}}{{sfn|Shannon|Hillmer|1999|pp=28-29}} The main station building is in private use.

Services

This station is on the Cambrian Coast Railway with passenger services to Pwllheli, Porthmadog, Harlech, Barmouth, Tywyn, Machynlleth and Shrewsbury. Trains call every two hours each way (on request) on weekdays, with 3 trains each way on summer Sundays and just a single one each way in the winter months.^[2]
