Corwen East station was opened on 22 October 2014 as the temporary western terminus of the Llangollen Railway.[1] The first train was a private service for supporters of the Corwen Appeal.[1] The first public service trains to Corwen East ran throughout the week commencing 27 October 2014 and at weekends until 9 November 2014. These first trains were considered a success, with nearly 4000 passengers travelling during the first ten days of trains to Corwen East.
The first public services in 2015 ran during the Llangollen Railway's Winter Warmer event on 2–3 January.[2] The first train ran using Class 104DMU Nos. M50454 and M50528 on 2 January, departing from Шаблон:Rws at 09.10 and arriving in Corwen East at 09.17.[2]
There was a formal opening ceremony on Saint David's Day, 1 March 2015.[3] Officials unveiled the bilingual Corwen name board "Dwyrain Corwen East", showing the station's name in both languages: Dwyrain Corwen and Corwen East.
The station was closed in November 2018 and dismantled in early 2019. It is now replaced by the permanent Corwen station alongside the town's main car park.[4]
