High wind will see train speeds reduced between Shotton and North Wales coast on Saturday

High wind speeds will see train speeds reduced between Shotton and North Wales coast on Saturday, Network Rail has said.

A 40mph speed restriction will be in place between Llandudno Junction and Shotton from 6am to 3pm.

Saturday’s weather will be nowhere near the same as last weekend when Storm Arwen battered North Wales.

But lines could be affected by debris or fallen branches loosened during last weekend’s gale-force winds.
