Foryd railway station
Foryd railway station (later known as Kinmel Bay Halt) was a railway station built to serve Kinmel Bay, then in Flintshire but now in Conwy County Borough, Wales. The original Foryd station was opened on 5 October 1858 and was situated on the Denbigh, Ruthin and Corwen Railway.〔(disused-stations.org.uk page on the station )〕 The station was then moved to its second site, this time on the North Wales Coast Line, on 20 April 1885.〔(History of the Vale of Clwyd railway on Rhyl History Club website )〕 where it remained until its closure in 1948. There were four tracks running through the station, two slow and two fast, with the two platforms located adjacent to the slow tracks.
As was the case with many smaller stations of the time Foryd closed temporarily as a war economy measure between 2 July 1917 and 1 July 1919. The station continued to be used for only 12 years after this, closing again in 1931. It was then renamed to Kinmel Bay and experimentally re-opened during the summers of 1938 and 1939. Services never ran from there again and the station was permanently closed on 9 October 1948.〔(North Wales Weekly News article on a possible new station near the site )〕 Nothing remains of either the station buildings or platforms, although the busy North Wales Coast Line still runs through the site.
In 2009 there was much speculation that a new station was to be built in the area.〔(North Wales Weekly News article on a possible new station near the site )〕 January 2013 saw the North Wales Weekly News announce that £20 million had been earmarked for new stations in the UK and that funds would be applied for from this pot for the scheme.〔(Local newspaper article on the proposal including the AM's backing )〕 However just a month later the Taith Joint Board, the North Wales transport consortium, pulled out of seeking funding for the project, stating that the ''"necessary infrastructure improvements have not been carried out".''〔(Rhyl Journal article announcing Taiths decision )〕
