A query for someone local or someone in the know...
I was recently compiling a timetable for the North Wales Mainline (file attached), and noticed that Conwy, Penmaenmawr and Llanfairfechan are no longer listed as request stops. Personally I think that this makes sense, especially for Conwy which had 52,568 passengers last year and is a tourist destination in it's own right. Additionally, there are times when the conductor is unable to get through the whole train between Llandudno Junction and Bangor to know which stations are being requested.
As I haven't seen anything official regarding this change, I was wondering whether, in practice, these stations are now compulsory calls, or whether it is a data issue?
Thanks
