Holyhead
(1848 - )
The first station in Holyhead was opened by the Chester and Holyhead Railway on August 1 1848, but this was replaced by the second station on May 15 1851.
The present station was opened by the London and North Western Railway on January 17 1866 and still retains its overall roof
It originally had four platforms, but only three are currently in use, the track to the former platform three having been lifted
A rail-served container terminal next to the station closed in 1991 when the traffic transferred to Liverpool. It has since been demolished and is now used as a car parking area for the Stena Line ferry service
The station is fully staffed, with a ticket office in the main ferry terminal plus self-service ticket machines for collecting pre-paid tickets. The terminal also offers covered waiting accommodation, a payphone, a photo booth, left luggage office, toilets, shops, and a cafe. Train running details are offered via digital information screens, timetable posters, and automated announcements
