Dinas Branch Above Station

There were many changes to the layout beyond Dinas Station during the branch's operating years as can be seen from the diagram on right. On the standard gauge, however, the only part remaining to this day, is the mainline from Llandudno Junction to Blaenau Ffestiniog, (purple spaced line), with all its sidings long gone. No signs of Dinas Station buildings are now visible and also no longer visible in the Hollands quarry incline.

View looking across the missing bridge. In the earliest days the line kept to the left of the river but is now buried under slate waste. The later line kept close to the Conway Valley line on the right.
