History

Файл:Bodorgan station geograph-3937603-by-Ben-Brooksbank.jpg
The station in June 1986

The station, which was originally to be called Trefdraeth, was opened in October 1849Шаблон:Sfn[3] and had a small signal box, a small goods yard and a water tower. The goods yard closed in December 1964 but the stationmaster's house remains (now in private use).[4] There are stone-built shelters on both platforms.

At around 05:00 am on 8 February 2011 an unnamed man was hit by a Holyhead-bound train near the station and died at the scene.[5]

Facilities

The station has the same range of amenities as others on this part of the line (CIS screens, timetable poster boards and a payphone). No ticketing facilities are available however, so these must be purchased in advance or on the train. Level access is available to both platforms, though platform 2 is only reachable by a barrow crossing and so care is advised when using it.[6]

Services

Шаблон:Update There is a two-hourly weekday service in each direction from the station. Most eastbound trains run to Wrexham General, Shrewsbury and Birmingham International, although a small number run to either Crewe or Cardiff.[7]

The Sunday service is irregular (six westbound, seven eastbound) and runs mainly to/from Crewe, with one service to Wrexham and Cardiff.
