Caergwrle railway station serves the village of Caergwrle in Flintshire, Wales. The station is 4¾ miles (7 km) north of Wrexham Central on the Borderlands Line.
The station was opened as Bridge End in June 1872. From 1885, the station had a signal box towards the southern end of the Wrexham-bound platform, which was named Caergwrle Castle Station signal box from 1898 until 1972. On 1 January 1899, the station itself was renamed to Caergwrle Castle, with the & Wells suffix being included from 1 October 1908. By 1912, the station had a lengthy siding, extending to the north-west, to the Lascelles and Sharman brewery.
The station was renamed from Caergwrle Castle & Wells to Caergwrle on 6 May 1974,[1] and the signal box was closed on 28 November 1982.[2]
The station is unstaffed and has no ticketing provision, so these must be purchased on the train or in advance of travel. There are waiting shelters on both platforms - the one on the southbound side is of brick construction and uses a design unique to this particular route.[3] The only other amenities provided are CIS displays and timetable poster boards on each side and a bike stand on platform 1 (the former building on the northbound side was demolished after the station became unstaffed in 1969). No step-free access is available to either platform.[4]
The basic off-peak service consists of one train per hour to (for connections to and via the Wirral Line), and one to . In the evenings and on bank holidays, this drops to one every second hour. There is a train every 90 minutes in each direction on Sundays.[5]
