Caernarvon railway station
Caernarvon railway station was a station on the former Bangor and Carnarvon Railway between Caernarfon, Gwynedd and Menai Suspension Bridge near Bangor. The station was closed to all traffic in January 1972. The station has since been demolished and the site redeveloped.
==History==
The station, which opened on 1 July 1852, was named "Carnarvon".〔Butt (1995), page 54〕 The town was originally the terminus of the branch line from Menai bridge; later becoming part of the Carnarvonshire Railway. In 1864 the Carnarvon and Llanberis Railway extended the branch line from Carnarvon station to Llanberis. A tunnel was constructed just south of the station to carry the new line. The tunnel was reopened in 1995 as a road tunnel.
By 1871 all three original companies were absorbed into the London and North Western Railway. The station was renamed "Caernarvon" on 27 March 1926.〔〔 In 1964 the lines to Afon Wen and Llanberis were closed under the Beeching Axe.〔Baughan (1988)〕
On 5 January 1970, Caernarvon was closed to all services.〔Butt (1995), page 51〕 However following a fire that destroyed the Britannia Bridge over the Menai Straits on 23 May 1970, the branch and goods yard were temporarily reopened for freight traffic until 30 January 1972. The branch line to Caernarvon station was finally closed with the resumption of rail services to Anglesey and Holyhead in February 1972. The track was removed and the station completely demolished. A Morrisons store now occupies the site.
