History
The station was originally known as Caergwrle, with the name changing to Hope Village on 1 January 1899,Template:Sfn to differentiate it from Caergwrle and Hope Exchange stations, with the latter being just north of Penyffordd. The station had a 17-lever signal box at the northern end of the Wrexham-bound platform, with an adjacent third through line around the outside of the platform, and a goods yard with a cattle pen and one-ton crane.Template:Sfn The signal box was opened in 1885 and closed on 1 August 1965, and the goods yard closed on 4 May 1964.Template:Sfn The station buildings here have been demolished since the station became unstaffed in 1969.
Facilities
Each of the two platforms has an electronic timetable (CIS screen), timetable poster board, a waiting shelter and CCTV. There is a cycle rack and lock-up on platform 1 and a payphone on platform 2. Entry to the station is by a ramp. Access to each platform is straightforward, with a pedestrian level crossing at the southern end of the platforms. However, neither platform has any seating.[1][2]
Services
The basic off-peak service consists of one train per hour to Bidston (for connections to Template:Rws and Template:Rws via the Wirral Line), and one to Wrexham Central. In the evenings and on bank holidays, this drops to one every second hour. There is a train every 90 minutes in each direction on Sundays.[3]
