History

A station at this location was first opened by the Taff Vale Railway on 1 June 1883, and was originally named Penrhiwceiber; it was renamed Penrhiwceiber Low Level by the Great Western Railway on 1 July 1924. It was closed by the Western Region of British Railways on 16 March 1964 and a new station, named Penrhiwceiber, provided for reopening of the branch to passengers on 3 October 1988.[1][2][3]

Services

The station has a basic half-hourly service in each direction (Mon-Sat), northbound to Aberdare and southbound to Pontypridd, Radyr, Cardiff Central and Barry Island. In the evenings the service drops to hourly.

On Sundays there is a general 2-hourly service to Barry Island with an hourly service in the morning and in the late afternoon. This is due to a campaign by the local Assembly Member and a successful trial in December 2017. The extra services began in April 2018.[4]
