Chelford station was rebuilt in 1960 by the architect William Robert Headley, who was an architect who is best known for his modernist railway stations for the London Midland Region of British Railways in the early 1960s. Another example of his work can be seen at East Didsbury station.

Being about 6.8 miles from the nearest paved road and 11 miles from the nearest village, Altnabreac is often listed as one of Britain's most geographically isolated railway stations, alongside Corrour elsewhere in Scotland, Dovey Junction in Mid Wales and Berney Arms in Norfolk.

Llandudno Junction is a Category A station, which has step free access to all platforms via a footbridge with lifts. Another station on the North Wales Coast Line - Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch (or Llanfair PG) is in Category B3, which has step free access to Platform 1 (to Chester) via a metal gate from the car park but access to Platform 2 (to Holyhead) is via a footbridge.
