History

The station, originally to be named Llanfaelog, was opened in November 1848 with a signal box being added in 1872. The box is located next to a level crossing which separates the two platforms. There was a warehouse and a crane nearby and a small goods yard which closed in 1964.[1]

Services

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.

The Sunday service is limited (five each way) and runs mainly to/from Crewe with one service to Wrexham and Cardiff.
