Hope Low Level formerly Hope Exchange formerly Hope Passenger Exchange
(1867 - 1958)
Hope Low Level railway station was located to the west of Penyffordd, Flintshire. The station was in fields with no road access, being an interchange between two lines
The station was opened as Hope Passenger Exchange in 1867 with two platforms which were linked by a barrow crossing at the eastern end and simple wooden huts on both platforms provided waiting facilities and staff accommodation
By 1904 the station had seven trains in each direction and in 1923 it was being served by eleven trains in each direction and by 1934 these had increased to thirteen
During the 2nd World War services at Hope Exchange were reduced and they would never recover to their previous levels and on 7 November 1953 the station was renamed as Hope Low Level but British Railways closed it completely on September 1 1958. Passenger trains continued to pass through the site of Hope Low Level until April 28 1962
The site of Hope Low Level station became very overgrown although in recent years it has been cleared for agricultural use
