Treborth railway station was a railway station located on the Bangor and Carnarvon Railway, about half a mile south of the Britannia Bridge, Caernarfonshire, Wales, near the route of the modern day A55. Opened in June 1854 on the line connecting the Menai Bridge with Caernarfon with a single platform and brick waiting room, the station was briefly closed in October 1858 for about a month.^[1] In 1872 a second platform was built and the station remained active until March 1959 when it was closed. The line itself was closed finally in 1972 and lifted shortly afterwards.^[2]

The station building was converted to a private residence and is still standing,^[3] being listed on the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales database.
