Llandudno Junction, in addition to its passenger interchange, had a major steam locomotive servicing depot and extensive goods facilities.
The site of the depot and goods yard has been redeveloped, now accommodating a business park, fast food outlets, a leisure centre, a Cineworld multiplex cinema, and a Tesco supermarket.
[2][3] A parish called Llanrhos was created in 1894 for the part of Eglwys Rhos within the Conwy borough boundaries.
[4][5] Local employment opportunities changed significantly in the latter quarter of the 20th century owing to the loss not only of the railway depots but also of a major electrical manufacturing facility (Hotpoint), of which part of the old factory site is under planning application for three more Car Dealerships.
Another part of the factory site was bought by the Welsh Government and construction began in 2007 on a new office building that houses around 525 employees, including about 100 tourism, transport and enterprise jobs which were relocated from Cardiff.
