Information About

Plas-y-nant Railway Station




Plas-y-Nant is an unstaffed halt on the Narrow Gauge Welsh Highland Railway . A halt at Plas-y-Nant was first used in the 1920's and this new halt near the northern end of Llyn Cwellyn was opened on May 15th 2005, which was also the same day as the Welsh Highland Railways "Rail-Ale" festival. The train services are operated by the Ffestiniog Railway Company and trains call only by request. At present the halt only has a platform but a waiting shelter will be built in the next few years.

Despite initial hostility to the Railway, and denying a halt initially, the entire Plas-Y-Nant community turned out on the day of opening for a train ride to Rhyd-Ddu and back. This change of heart is not uncommon, and may also happen on other parts of the railway, including Nantmor.
