About Merthyr Vale Train Station

Opened in 1841 by the Taff Vale Railway, Merthyr Vale served South Wales' coal industry.

The station declined post WWII but avoided closure due to commuter demand.

Modernized in 2012, it retains some original features.

Merthyr Vale's survival represents the importance of maintaining valley rail links.

The station remains vital for local travel, connecting communities to Cardiff while preserving elements of its industrial past in this once busy mining valley now remembered for the 1966 Aberfan disaster memorial and scenic walking trails along the Taff River.
