Valley
(1849 - 1966 1982)


Valley Station which was opened in June 1849, was provided with two platforms and a substantial two-storey brick-built building on its Chester (eastbound) side

The station would have been served by mostly local services but during the summer months many excursions would have delivered holidaymakers bound for the nearby town of Trearardur with its sandy bay

Valley station closed to passengers on February 14 1966 but the nearby goods yard continued in use as a loading facility for the nearby Wylfa Magnox Nuclear Power Station

The station lies very close to the large RAF Base called Valley and after much local lobbying the station was re-opened on March 15 1982

The station is unstaffed and has no ticket machine, so all tickets have to be purchased prior to travel or on the train. Train running information is offered via a telephone, digital CIS displays and timetable posters
