Llandudno Junction
Carriage Shed
Anthony J. Robinson
Carriage sheds generally stood in the shadow of an adjacent engine shed
(there usually was one) as far as the attention of enthusiasts were concerned.
Apart from the one at Crewe South which is still extant there can’t be many
more LNWR examples left. The one depicted  ‘bit the dust’ a couple of years
ago, to make way for the ubiquitous McDonalds and a ‘Super Bowl’.
Llandudno Junction carriage shed probably reached its zenith of
importance in the mid 1950s as the main North Wales service point for the
DMU population which then descended on the area.
