Originally opened in 1844 as Cadiff Bute Dock it became Cardiff Docks in 1845, then renamed by the Great Western Railway as Cardiff Bute Road in 1925 and finally got its current name in 1994. The station building at the far end is listed as one of the top 10 buildings in Wales 'at risk' by the Victorian Society. The single platform is some 200 metres long but is served by a single carriage - seen in the picture, which connects with the mainline at Cardiff Queen Street.
