Flint railway station (Template:Langx) serves the town of Flint in Flintshire, North Wales. It is located on the North Wales Coast Line and is managed by Transport for Wales, which provides most of the passenger trains that call here; some Avanti West Coast services also serve the station. In July 2008, it was voted UK Station of the Year.[1]
Facilities
The station is staffed through the day, with the ticket office inside the main building on platform 2. A self-service ticket machine is provided for use and for collecting advance purchase tickets. A waiting room is provided on the eastbound side (platform 1), with digital information screens, timetable posters and help points on both platforms. A stepped footbridge connects the two platforms, but step-free access to both sides is provided via a public footpath passing beneath the railway.[2]
The station is set to become fully accessible by early 2025. Network Rail will undertake this work with funding from the Department for Transport's Access for All programme.[3]
Services
Flint is served by two train operating companies:
- Transport for Wales operates generally hourly services on two main routes:[4][5]
- Manchester Airport to Llandudno; some trains run through to/from Holyhead
- Birmingham International or Cardiff Central (alternate hours) to Holyhead.
- Avanti West Coast operates inter-city services between Holyhead and London Euston, via Chester and Crewe. There are five services in each direction on weekdays.[6]
