Frongoch railway station
Frongoch railway station was a railway station at Frongoch on the Great Western Railway's Bala Ffestiniog Line in Wales. It closed to passenger services on 2 January 1960 and freight services on 27 January 1961.
The station building and signal box are now in use as a private residence.
It was converted to a holiday home during the early 1970s when it was rescued from complete dilapidation. Initially the signal box was converted and the local council agreed that 2½ people could sleep in it. The main station had a small extension added to the end to house a bathroom and the large warehouse was demolished to make way for several homes.
