Opened 1868: Passenger trains began serving Betws-y-Coed on April 6, 1868. The London & North Western Railway extended the Conwy Valley line (which had reached Llanrwst in 1863) to Betws-y-Coed, initially for freight in 1867. Slate Transport: The primary purpose of the Conwy Valley line was to transport dressed slate from the quarries in Blaenau Ffestiniog to Deganwy for export. A further extension to Blaenau Ffestiniog opened in 1879. Tourist Hub: The railway became the main way for tourists to reach Betws-y-Coed, and the station was designed with ample facilities to cope with the crowds. Local Builder: The station building itself is quite substantial for a country branch line and was constructed by local contractor Owen Gethin Jones, a renowned stonemason, carpenter, civil engineer, and poet. Decline and Revival: Like many branch lines, it saw a decline in the 20th century. However, its scenic route and importance for tourism have ensured its continued operation.
