Railhead Llandudno Junction North Wales

Breedon Group extends commitment to sustainable rail infrastructure. A joint initiative between Breedon Group, Network Rail and the Welsh Government has brought the disused Llandudno Junction freight yard sidings back to life. The Llandudno Junction freight yard had not been used for several years, but extensive work - including vegetation removal, track repairs and refurbishment of the points which allow trains to swap tracks – has brought it back into service. The yard is near the main Penrhyn Quarry of Breedon Group subsidiary Welsh Slate, and up to 260,000 tonnes of materials - ranging from sub-base to decorative aggregate are expected to pass through it each year, with trains expected to run weekly.
