[3][4] On 1 January 1899, the station itself was renamed to Caergwrle Castle,[5] with the & Wells suffix being included from 1 October 1908.

[5][clarification needed] By 1912, the station had a lengthy siding, extending to the north-west, to the Lascelles and Sharman brewery.

[4][7] The station is unstaffed and has no ticketing provision, so these must be purchased on the train or in advance of travel.

There are waiting shelters on both platforms - the one on the southbound side is of brick construction and uses a design unique to this particular route.

[9] The basic off-peak service consists of one train per hour to Bidston (for connections to Birkenhead Park and Liverpool Lime Street via the Wirral Line), and one to Wrexham Central.
