As services on the Conwy Valley line only run roughly every 3 hours, are there certain trains that are much busier than others?
I'll be in the area next week and im looking to ride the line, but want to avoid overly busy services if possible.
I'm guessing that the 1137 off Blaenau Ffestiniog to Llandudno, and the 1612 Llandudno to Blaenau Ffestiniog, are among the busiest services in those directions?

Thanks for any information

Thanks, I'm there midweek next week, so that's good to know
Make sure you sit on the River Conwy side of the train for the best views!

Obviously there is no catering on the train, but there is a decent Coop two minutes walk from Blaenau station for drinks and snacks including a Costa Express coffee machine!
