After the demise of The Aberdare High Level Railway Station for railway passenger services on both the High Level (ex-GWR and Vale of Neath) and the Low Level (ex-TVR and GWR) – victims of The Beeching Axe in 1964.

What happened after the restoration took place? Nothing Aberdare Railway Station was again left to the vandals.

Many people in Cynon Valley think Aberdare Railway Station should be returned as our main station serving the people of Aberdare. The access is easer than the box and platform that now acts as the main Station for the people of Aberdare. https://www.aberdareonline.co.uk/node/24233
