Penrhyndeudraeth railway station is a railway station serving the small town of Penrhyndeudraeth on the Dwyryd Estuary in Gwynedd, Wales. It is a station on the Cambrian Coast Railway with services between Shrewsbury and Pwllheli via Machynlleth.

History

The railway line between  and Pwllheli was authorised to be built by the Aberystwith and Welsh Coast Railway (A&WCR) on 22 July 1861. During construction, the A&WCR amalgamated with the Cambrian Railways, this being authorised on 5 July 1865 and effective from 5 August 1866. The section between Barmouth and  opened on 2 September 1867, and Penrhyndeudraeth station opened the same day.

In 2016, The Welsh Government funded the installation of a reinforced glass fibre 'hump' on the platform to improve access for wheelchair and pushchair users onto and off trains.
