Passenger statistics from the Office of Rail and Road |
Llanbedr railway station serves the village of Llanbedr in Gwynedd, Wales. Until 8 May 1978, it was known as Talwrn Bach. The station is an unstaffed halt on the Cambrian Coast Railway with passenger services to Porthmadog, Pwllheli, Barmouth, Machynlleth and Shrewsbury. This station is close to the popular camping resort of Shell Island. Trains call only on request.
Since 22 June 2020, trains have not called at the station due to the short platform and the inability to maintain social distancing between passengers and the guard when opening the train door.[1] This meant that, in the Office of Rail and Road's statistics, it became one of Britain's least used stations, recording 0 passengers in the year 2020–21.
