Looking at the Conwy Valley timetable seeing as half of it is shut at the minute.
Interesting that the 0530 from the Junction to Betws takes 24 minutes. Potential for an hourly service with a single unit there (with a bit of skip stopping and the higher acceleration of a 230 or mechanical transmission CAF DMU) to compensate for the lack of connectivity if it ends up closed for a while? That would be a huge upgrade on the busiest part of the line (potential massive tourist revenue increase in summer) provided a way to serve the southern end properly could be found.
