Llanerchymedd railway station
Taken while on holiday in the early 1990s. At the time, the railway had not long been out of use. This is the old branch line to Almlwych, opened as the Anglesey Central Railway between 1864 and 1867. Like most independent railways, they had no money, and so operation of the line was taken over by the London & North Western Railway from 1876. The line was closed to passengers by Beeching in 1964, but remained open for freight to the Associated Octel plant at Amlwych until 1993. My best guess as to the date is 1994; I know the trains were no longer running at the time I took this.

Llanerchymedd station building
Here's another view of the derelict station building at Llanerchymedd, taken in 1994 from what was once the goods yard. While trying to locate where this photograph was taken (well, it was a long time ago!), I discovered that the station building has been refurbished and reopened as an information and heritage centre for the village, which is nice. There's an ongoing campaign to reopen the railway, too.

The line of the Amlwch branch line immediately north of Llannerch-y-Medd station
The branch line from Llangefni to Llannerch-y-medd was completed in 1866 and the extension on to Amlwch took place the following year. Passenger services were withdrawn in 1964 but the line was kept open to serve the Associated Octel bromine plant at Amlwch. In 1993, however all services were withdrawn and the line has gone the way of the Holland Arms to Benllech line which was closed in 1950.

The site of the former Llannerch-y-medd railway station
It is hard to believe that a mere 3 years separates this photo from that taken by Ralph Rawlinson in March 2005. It shows how quickly nature can take over.
