Opened in 1911 by the Cardiff Railway Company on their line from Heath to Treforest, this became the end of the line in 1953. And so it has survived ever since, with six stations in less than 3 miles from the junction with the Rhymney line from Cardiff to Caerphilly. A remarkable survivor. View west.
