Llandudno Junction is a major junction station on the Chester and Holyhead Railway, where the Llandudno Branch and the Blaenau Ffestiniog Branch cross. The two branches together make up the Conwy Valley Line (nprn 415673).
The first Llandudno Junction station opened in 1858, concurrent with the opening of the Llandudno Branch, and was joined in 1863 by the Conway and Llanrwst Railway. The station was superceded in 1897 when the present one was constructed a short distance to the east.
