MOLD AND DENBIGH JUNCTION RAILWAY, a railway in Flintshire and Denbighshire; from the end of the Mold branch of the Chester and Holyhead railway at Mold, west-north-westward, to the Vale of Clwyd line at Denbigh. It was authorized in 1861, on a capital of £125,000 in shares, and £41,000 in loans; and was to be 18 miles long. But the company was empowered in 1865 to abandon a portion, to make several deviations, to construct certain new lines, and to raise a further capital of £100,000 in shares, and £33,000 in loans.
