Filling time before a ferry from Holyhead I took a train to Bodorgan, which is definitely one of those stations in the middle of nowhere that serves a number of small settlements rather than one big town.

The station has a small car park with a disabled bay:

Bodorgan car park

From the car park is a gated entrance to the platforms:

Bodorgan entrance

The entrance takes us on to platform 1, for trains back towards Bangor. Here we look east:

To our west is the station buiding which is no longer in railway use:

Nevertheless the old station building does still provide sheltered seating on platform 1:

Further west along platform 1 is a old-style sign:

Looking back along the platforms from near this sign:

Walking down towards the other end of platform 1 we encounter a planter showing the station is adopted and looked after by the ladies of Bodorgan WI:

The edge of platform 1 gives on to a gravel track:

At the eastern end of platform 1, looking towards the barrow crossing which both provides a connection between the two platforms and forms part of a public footpath:
