Tryfan Junction Station, c1960

Tryfan Junction on the Welsh Highland Railway. Originally built by North Wales Narrow Gauge Railways, it stood at the junction between the Bryngwyn Branch (originally the main line) and the line to South Snowdon (Rhyd Ddu). Despite closure of the Bryngwyn Branch to passengers in 1913, the station survived into WHR days. The photo shows the station in derelict condition c1960. It remains derelict today and is the subject of an ongoing conservation project by the Welsh Highland Railway Heritage Group.
