% - BEWARE whilst in theory it is just possible to catch the earlier 1942 "5C-5" at Caernarfon - as it is less than
5 minutes it is NOT recognised as a connection by the TravelineCymru "Journey Planner," but if you are QUICK and do make it, you will get to Llandudno much earlier - unfortunately this is yet another case of 'failed' integrated timetable planning | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
