Gwersyllt railway station serves the area of Gwersyllt in the town of Wrexham in North Wales. It is one of five stations in the Wrexham County Borough. The station is 3.5 km (2¼ miles) north of Wrexham Central on the Borderlands Line and was opened in 1866. The station used to have a signal box at the northern end of the Bidston-bound platform.[1] A short distance to the south a goods-only branch line (part of the North Wales Mineral Railway network, to Brymbo) crossed the route and the abutments of the bridge it utilised still survive (along with a dip in the track formation). One of the line's main engineering features, the five arch stone viaduct over the River Cegidog is situated on this stretch of the line, but to the north of the station.[2] FacilitiesThe station is unstaffed and has no ticket provision (these must be bought on the train or prior to travel). Amenities provided here are limited to waiting shelters (there being no other permanent structures left here), CIS displays and timetable poster boards. There is a car park behind the northbound platform, which adjoins that belonging to a local supermarket. Level access can be had from there to both platforms, though the southbound one requires the use of a barrow crossing. Access is also possible to both platform from the road bridge at the south end, though this has steps on both sides.[3] ServicesWeekdays (daytime) the line is served by two units, providing an hourly service each way (southbound to Wrexham Central and northbound to Bidston). After 1845 (and all day on bank holidays) the service is provided by one unit, giving one train in each direction every two hours.[4] On Sundays the service is run with a single unit, providing a train every 2.5 hours in each direction. There is a connection at Bidston for onward travel for stations to {{stnlnk|Liverpool Central}} via the Wirral Line and at Wrexham General for stations to {{rws|Shrewsbury}} and beyond and for Chester.
